Beware Aussie cablemod potential buyers.

Hey everyone, if you're using cablemod for your custom cables, despite the fact that their website explicitly states they use Aus post for Australian deliveries, they actually use FedEx. If you're planning on getting custom cables from cablemod, don't use a parcel locker or you'll be waiting a hell of a lot longer for your cables and they don't use Aus post like their website says.

Hello Reddit world, my birthday is at the end of the month and my parents had asked what I want, I’m in my early 20s so I don’t want much as I just buy stuff myself, so I asked my parents for money towards this and they had yes

Getting
1 ATX
2 EPS
1 PCIE
1 fire hazard

It’ll give me an excuse to clean my pc for the first time in good knows how long

I look forward to this and just wanted to share

I changed the combs to black

Hope they get here in time for the 29th of May to 5th of June as I booked that off for work

Welp

Yesterday I noticed a weird smell, after 3 years of use in all kinds of heavy games like cyberpunk or bf6 I had no problems. And yesterday at couple minutes diablo4 I noticed the smell.

So I decided to check the cable and it was fine. But the adapter was not. Actually already melted.

So I messaged Nvidia for RMA and cablemod. Nvidia says it's out of the 3 years warranty.... And cablemod says I missed the recall of the adapters and GPU refunds. Now Im here with a 4090FE that has a melted cable port and no angled adapter.

The card works fine without problems, but with this melted port I can't use the card anymore.

u/cablemod can you somehow help me out or is the support right that I missed my chances I gotta live with that?

PCIe 8 pin supplemental power connector on my MSI motherboard - GPU/PCIe or EPS cable?

Hi. I'm going to need a 90 degree 8 pin cable for this connector at the bottom of my motherboard (MSI x870e Gaming Plus) because of limited space (Arctic 140mm pros are beefy) and stiff stock cables from my PSU, but I'm unsure which type of cable I would need. I did read "It uses a standard PCIe 6+2 pin cable, not a CPU cable", so would that mean your GPU cable? I have a Montech Century II 1050w PSU, so I know your cables are compatible - now I just need to find the correct one. Thanks!

Here is an article explaining a bit about the purpose of the extra connector, if needed.

MSI GeForce RTX 5080 16G Expert OC Graphics Card which cable 90 degree variant to use?

Hi guys,

I am looking at vertically mounting a MSI 5080 16gb expert OC gpu with CableMod ModFlex 12V-2x6 90 Deg PCIe Cable for ASUS Variant A/B but I am unsure which would be required.

I'm looking to run the cable towards the back plate rather than the fan side of the GPU in a vertical mounted position which variant would more appropriate for this orientation?

Thank you! :)

Hi

I'm looking to get some custom cables for my new build and wanted to make sure I pick the right ones. Here are my specs:

  • PSU: ASUS ROG THOR III 1600W TITANIUM
  • MB: ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR X870E DARK HERO
  • VGA: ASUS ROG ASTRAL RTX 5090 (Vertical mount with Riser Kit)

Could you recommend which cable kit or specific cables I should purchase for this setup?

I am especially interested in a solution that includes the 12V-2v6 cable for the 5090. Since I will be mounting the GPU vertically, I want to ensure the cable is flexible enough and the length is appropriate.

Do you have kits that support the THOR III's native 12V-2v6 output (gpu first)?

Thanks in advance!

I didn’t hear any clicks while pushing the connector in, so a bit paranoid here. I’ve already pushed it in as much as I can and at this point it won’t go any further without breaking something.

What’s worrying me is that the side parts of the connector don’t seem to have gone fully in. I can still see a bit of gap on the sides. The middle section looks okay to me, but I’m not sure if those side gaps are normal or if the cable still isn’t fully seated.

Also yeah, before anyone mentions it, the PC is definitely due for a cleanup 😅 There’s some dust buildup here and there and I’ll be cleaning it soon.

Attaching photos below.

Hello all, I’m looking to run a 90 degree angled cable on my 5090 so it goes into the GPU and then the cable goes on the top of the backplate, but I’m confused as to which variant I need. I run a Seasonic 1600w ATX 3.1 PSU and they no longer stock their own cables so I’ve resorted to getting a CableMod 12v-2x6. Thank you!

u/Shutokou — 7 days ago

I’ve made sure the cable is fully flush with the gpu. PSU is msi ai1300p atx 3.1, cable is the native 12v 2x6 cable. Theres a slight downwards stress on the power connector but the cable itself is fully flush with the gpu. I’ve tried to remove that stress but it doesn’t really go
