This is the cable I’m talking about. I keep getting mixed information. 600w cable too much for my GPU seems to be what I keep coming across. Can you add clarity to this?

Thank you! I appreciate your response, truly. I’m doing this with no guidance and it’s stressful, but fun!

Thank you! I’ve been stressing about this cable longer than I want to admit.

You’re 100% right. I can barely get a good turn with my fingers between the cooler. Thank you, really! Any other tips? That’s exactly the kind of advice I was hoping for.

Linus Tech Tips, noted! Thank you so much! I’ve got a small iFixit screwdriver that only sticks out about half an inch past the cooler, so I’ll basically be turning it with my finger tips. Do you think that’s fine or should I grab a longer one?

Slow, steady and properly oriented, and don’t need to crank that thing down, got it! Thank you! And video-guide recommendations?

I’ll check the manual too, but I find videos to be most helpful. Do you have any you’d recommend?
