I recently purchased a new graphics card and the 8 pin cable from my power supply to motherboard is slightly too short. I was wondering if there is a solution to extend the cable slightly Amazon preferably. Thanks in advanced i appreciate it :D
 
Thanks for the assistance i really appreciate it. Just to double check this is the cable i would like to extend. Thanks in advance

Yeah that's an EPS, not sure what getting a new GPU has to do with that though?

I can see a cable management cutout, so with the extension you should probably route the cable behind the motherboard tray :)
 
Are you running the EPS cable from the power supply in the bottom of the case, over top the video card, then to the top of the board? You might not need an extension if you can route the cable through a hole by the power supply behind the motherboard, then through the cut out that Feronix pointed out. It will look much better too.

I know with my last case the cable was too short unless I routed the cable under the tray. (which should be done anyway!)
 
^There's also the option to route it over the motherboard, under the GPU which usually fits but yes, definitely behind the motherboard is better!
 
put it behind the motherboard - up through the CPU cut out at the back and clip it in before screwing your motherboard in place
 
Thanks so much for all the assistance i decided to upgrade my power supply for my new graphics card coming soon :D.
