Hello,

I just ordered the parts for my first computer build. Here is the partlist: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/hK4qP6

I'm going to work very hard on cable management to make this a nice clean build in the 350D. I (barely) have a little money left over for a few sleeved cables. I've found several sites where I can get ready-to-go sleeved cables for my modular PSU, but I don't know exactly which pin connectors I need to have on the cables. My PSU is Corsair's AX 760 so it is modular. I would think the mobo power cable should be easy, 24 pin, right? But the GPU looks like an 8 pin and a 6 pin. But, I really don't know what I'm looking for.

Anyway, I would really appreciate anyone who knows the terminology for these different types of power cables and could tell what I need for replacement power cables for the CPU, GPU, and motherboard in the partlist above. This way, I won't have to wait for my parts to arrive just so I can guess which ones to order and risk having useless cable extensions.

Thanks so much

Thanks for that last article it cleared up my confusion about PCI-E connectors. The reason I am looking into replacement cables is solely to improve the aesthetics of the computer.
