New Case and Corsair HX1000 cabling help

magick · 6 Nov 2009 at 13:07

Ok for my next build i'm going for a Lian Li PC-X1000 with a Corsair HX1000

Here's an internal pic of the case :-

Now I'll remove the bottom HD cage to make room for the PSU and in the very top chamber I'll be installing :-

2 x 3.5" HD
2 x 2.5" SSD
2 x 5.25" DVD/Blu-Ray drives

So I need six SATA power cables from the power supply that can reach the top of the case. Are the cables on the HX1000 long enough for this?

Thanks.

Offtopic but please spray the inside of the case black when you do get it, looks horrible with bare metal inside!

True, but once you've installed everything and put the side door back you'll never see the inside again.

Yes, but we will know it's there and forever hold it against you!

It might be worth registering here and asking how long the SATA cables are.

I browsed through a couple of threads but could only find the lengths of cables supplied with the VX450 which are 71cm.
