Be Quiet psu 12vhpwr?

I know these cables exist but where can you purchase them? I contacted Be Quiet directly and they said they couldn't sell me one and they have been sent out to distributors.
Anyone know where you can get hold of the proper cable for Be Quiet Psu?

I have ordered one from a european-based retailer (not sure if I'm allowed to say who so message me if you like).

hi Mikeey

That would be great if you can share the information. I tried to start a conversation with you, but for some reason the "start a conversation" button is unavailable next to your contact name???

I'd like one of these for my bequiet PSU.
I wonder if OCUK are going to stock them.

Spoke to OCUK last week, and the be quiet 12vhpwr cable should be with me tomorrow. Just had the despatch email through

These seem to have popped up now with some other retailers, not sure if overclocked will sell this though as I couldn’t see it listed

I tried looking around at the time but couldn't find anything in stock or even a reasonable eta. So messaged OCUK to see if they were getting any in, and they were due in a few days but limited stock. Cost me £16.99 and we'll see what it's like when it arrives tomorrow.

I get mine tomorrow so will do a quick review on it for anyone else that’s interested. The be quiet you tube video promo on this shows that the cable is fairly bendable as compared to the Nvidia adaptor so this will help fitting a horizontal mount.

I've just installed the bequiet! 12vhpwr cable and its a lot neater than the Nvidia 4 way connector, and fits very nicely into the back of my Dark Power Pro12 PSU.
I cant tell if there is going to be any performance difference....No fires here

as the Nvidia cable didnt melt for me, but at least its a lot tidier.

I took some pictures so you can see how they compare, but I wouldnt call the bequiet! cable any more flexible than the stock Nvidia adapter, as the strands feel very meaty.

As it comes out of the bequiet! box:

Nvidia vs Bequiet!

Nvidia 4 way adapter:

Bequiet! Adapter:

PSU end, 2x12v Connectors plugged into different rails (I believe):

Finished look is a lot neater, not bad for £17

Looks nice, looking forward to mine tomorrow. Surprised the cable doesn’t have much bend in it as the be quiet promo video shows some quite extreme bend in the adaptor which looks like it will be an easy fit for a horizontal build.
