Hello,i am currently building my computer and hav ejust put in the graphics card. The card is a gtx 760 with two 6 pin connectors.
My power supply came with the correct lead for the card however the two 6+2 pin connectors are at opposits sides of the same wire. This means that i cannot shut the case properly. Am i using the right wires?

I would like to say no and you should be ok, however I'm someone who doesnt like to push stuff to where it shouldn't go cause I hate to think that I could break at any time..

A solution for this problem would be to just search the web for a pci-e 6+2 internal connector that is set as a right angle (the same look as a sata cable) this would solve your problem, just make sure that the cables run to the right side.

Hope that helps, so basically for the time being I feel like it should be ok but defiantly look into a new cable

I can shut it but the cable is very bent. Will this damage it?
