Hey guys. I have a Corsair 1000w RMx modular 80 plus gold psu and am having a fair bit of trouble keeping the cables tidy - mainly the cables going to the gpu. Compared ones i've used in the past, they are super rigid and hard to bend. I'm making an effort to get things looking neat this time round and was wondering if they can be replaced with something more flexible and easay to work with? Atm 3 of them are going to a 4080 via converters that came with the card and it looks like a right mess!

Any suggestions for the neatest way to achive this would be much appreciated. The case is a Corsair 5000d.
 
Corsair do a cable for RTX 4000 GPUs.

Not sure if i can post a link but if you google

Premium Individually Sleeved 12+4pin PCIe Gen 5 12VHPWR 600W cable, Type 4​


Full modular cable so not a extension and comes in various colours.

Double check if it is compatible with you PSU
 
Corsair do their own braided cables which are more flexible than the stock cables, I'm using the black set on a rm1000x.... I did buy some after market cable combs though to keep them tidy, corsair are pretty cheap on these and only give you one at most :(

You could also go the cablemods route and get a full set of their flexmod (iirc) cables which are more flexible etc.

As for the gpu, personally I'm grabbing a cablemods cable (luckily my cables are black) rather than the corsair ones and it's for one reason... cable combs, the corsair comes with just one ugly square style cable comb so you'll end up with a load of loose wires etc.
