@defrisselle@mastodon.sdf.orgMy nephew is building a new PC, and one little detail is holding it up: the 6+2 PCIe connector bumps out too much and hits a small lip on the back plate So, the connector can't sit tight and flush nor lock-in
Does anyone know of good quality compatible cables that have a straight 8-pin connector or no long locking seam for the 6+2
One option would be to snip out the little bit that's holding up on that lip
The PSU is a Seasonic VERTEX GX-1200, and he does have a ticket in with Seasonic about the issue The GPU is a Powercolor Radeon RX 7900XT
