Which PSU Extenstion Cables?
I opened a thread and ant to make sure I get the right cables.
Here is the build : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/gpnXhM

The case is the h440 so most of the cables are hidden. The cables that are visable are the powers to the gpu, the 970 needs a 6 pin and an 8 pin. The 24 pin to the mobo. And the cord that powers the cpu. I want the cables to be bitfenix alchemy

no problem.

By the way

you need 2 8-pin extension cable if you wanna include the CPU cable
1 6-pin
and 1 24-pin

And just choose the colour you want.

can you post a link of the extension cable you are looking to buy? or the name?

You get the one's you wanna extend.

I would go for 1x6 pin 1x8pin <-- for GPU (I presume the 8 pin is a 6pin + 2 pin connector) so you get 2 of it
and 1 x 24 pin <--- for Mobo

And choose what color you want.

Do you mean what cables you wanna extend using the Bitfenix alchemy?

For me it would be the visible one's, for instance the 24 pin for the mobo, the 6 and 8 pin for the GPU and thats about it. The one on the CPU is not that visible really.

I assume that you want sleeved and colored extension cables, because the PSU you bought is not modular.
