    Can you get an extension cable for the 4 pin MB cable ? (Is it the CPU power lead??? … not sure..)

    Ive just bought the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro and as you can see that cable is already pretty tight!

    The case is an Antec 900 with the PSU at the bottom (stupid idea but didnt really think it out before i bought it!)

    Any ideas on how to sort it?
    Thanx..

    Never heard of an extender for that. You’ve tried routing the cable under the cards or round to the right touching the top of the ram?

    can you get acces to the other side of the case? if so then thread it through the back. you should have some extra length on the cable by avoiding the obstacles of the pci cards.
    is this what you are after?

    (edit) doh its 8 pin sorry. well theres a 6 pin to 4 pin adapter there perhaps you can doctor something up?

    ..cheers for the replies!!

    I probably could cobble something up at work to extend it with the help of that 6 to 4 pin adapter if i really have to!

    As for goin under the MB i thought ‘no chance’ but looking at it again i reckon it could work! Ive gone under teh GFX card at the minute i think i SHOULD have enough cable spare….just! If not ill have to whip out the MB n try goin under.

    Was gonna fit the AC cooler tonight but only just realised all my IPA had evaporated/leaked 👿 👿

    Will try tommorrow!!

    Thanx again
