Wow the Corsair red sleeved PSU cables are out of stock everywhere until July! That's too long a wait. I can either use the black that came with the PSU maybe there's another company that makes these? Any ideas?
id go with cablemod, i have red corsair cables and they are extremely stiff and have ugly black bit at the end, that makes them hard to use in tight places. If i had a chance i would send them back and would get cablemod
Thanks to you all lads for your help and lightning fast replies! I've just ordered the red CableMod cables from the only shop in the country that sells them ha ha! And they are in stock even, so I'm one happy camper! Excellent article too, that Tom linked and nice vid! Hats off to this forum once more! I think I've seen the red ones in one of your videos, Tom?
Edit: Just got the cable set in the post and it looks fantastic!! Thanks, Tom, for making me aware of these, appreciate it loads!
Edit 2: Got the cables in and they're brilliant! Easy to work with (guide, bend but staying rigid enough to hold onto the bend etc.). If I'll ever need to change colours, I'll definitely go CableMod again! Again thanks to Tom for pointing me in their direction. I've uploaded a pic I quickly shot whilst installing the new PSU and cables so it wasn't 100% at that time. One tip for CableMod; the 6+2 pin PCI-e cables could've been a bit longer as I was about 3-4 cm short of reaching it through the top cable-hole-thingy in the case.
Try putting the cable through the top grommet and fitting it to the GPU beforr installing the GPU into the case? Sometimes you can get a tight one in that way - or make sure you are using the psu connection closest to the mobo tray - youve deffo got enough slack the GPU end of the cable to give it a try

I would have done but for the zip ties holding up the GPU because of a sag, which are now covered by the PCI-e cable, and I couldn't have done if I had used the top grommet. I decided to do make the comment earlier because not everyone has a sagging card.
