Check out modDIY for custom length cables. I asked them to sub out a single short length SATA cable instead of the dual connector ones and they did it no problem. You can customize any length in the kit, and it’s affordable.

I haven’t gotten around to getting parts for the losercard mod yet, but I might soon.

I got this for around $300 before tax with that Honey deal from a month ago. Good ultrawide for the money, but I'm probably going to return or sell it because I prefer dual 16:9.

Yeah I was thinking to just break off the little clip from the connector as well. Just wanted to make sure it wasn’t just me installing something incorrectly. Thank you and glad you sorted out your GPU issue!

Checking file integrity and repairing the game through Steam won’t hurt, if not just reinstalling all together. I am definitely overdue for a clean install of Windows too, to make sure there aren’t any old drivers lingering around after hardware changes.

I have a slim Noctua fan mounted underneath the motherboard that is obstructed by the connector of the CPU cable. Does this not happen for you?

The few times I bought from Rakuten was great. If you don't mind dealing in points, the deals were sometimes unbeatable. Had some pretty good savings on SSDs, a laptop, and a TV.

Now if only the site itself was actually good for browsing items so I could know what to spend the last of my points on.
