Modded GPU Cable for my Power supply

[TipsyDipsy45]

Apologies if this is the wrong section for this question

I have gotten myself the RTX 4080 Super however like most people aren't happy with the adapter that attaches to the graphics card as there is a bend that make me feel a tad nervous. I have been trying to have a look at a modded cable for my GIGABYTE RTX 4080 Windforce GPU however I am struggling to find the correct wire that goes with my Power Supply, if anyone can help me would be much appreciated.

My PSU is Toughpower GF 850W Thermaltake, the model number is TTP-850AH3FCG-B

Thanks.

From a google, I think it is this cable:

Model code: AC-063-CN1NAN-A1. I can only see one seller with it in stock, price is £8, but that doesn't include delivery.

To be honest that doesn't look that much better than the Nvidia supplied cable.

Do you mean from a technical/assembly perspective?

I assumed the OP meant they didn't like the adapter just because it looks messy and this cable does clean some of that up.

Sorry should have clarified, what I meant is the adapter that comes with the graphics card has been known to damage the cable and cause a lot of problems because the way it bends the pins and aren't flexible enough

The nVidia supplied adapter is probably very stiff at the GPU which is fine with plenty of room.

The TT one looks like it has more flex at the GPU which shouldn't be a problem if the bend is not stressed i.e. the actual connector is inserted straight.

The solution you may be after is a flexible multi-strand type of PSU to GPU adapter which would be more like a custom Cable Mod item. I tried the v2.0 configurator they have added some fancy bits like a shroud at the GPU end so the price has gone up to 53 euro!

PC is back together at last. I meant from a aesthetic view. It's still two ugly cables coming into a single connector. While it's a little better than the Nvidia connector it's not exactly nice to look at.

True, but the cable I linked is a native cable rather than an extension and the PSU's modular board is hidden from view in most cases.

Mine have windows, but they're all facing the wall or other PCs
