I know that the Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3P board comes with a floppy cable. However, I'm just trying to confirm if its a good round cable or an older IDE cable? Wondering if I should order good round cable with this?? Thanks!

I just checked on Newegg and they showed the flat/wide type in the pictures.

That's the Motherboard, right?

I always use the flat type since they bend easier (and are cheaper), but I do agree the round look better and have better airflow.

you can always split the ribbon cable[with your fingers] and then tape it,then they are really easy and thin to get out of the way,i have found that the round cables are way too thick,kinda like having another 24 line cable to play with,,for what it's worth my 2c...

That's a cool idea dokk. I'll have to try that next time.

Forgot to ask. Should I get angled locking sata cables for HD's and DVD's??

Gigabyte will give you two angled cables. I would not spend extra for them.
