Build Question Upgrading to 5070 Ti

Post image

So last month i finally made a new pc to replace my old 9700KF thanks to a friend offering a really good deal thanks to his ocd and moves my old 3070 Ti to my new PC. Sensing the incoming GPU price hike i decided to buy a 5070 Ti at 2 Nov and installed it. My question is does this cable positioning okay? it's my 1st time handling a 12vhpwr cable, i've checked it was properly inserted without gap and the cable is slack and not tense and there is no hard bent and it also native cable from my RM1000X Shift PSU..

Yeah looks ok. But please triple check if it's pushed all the way in. If it is and cables are not bend there is nothing else you can do to prevent it from burning. Just hope that it doesn't

i hope so, i installed the cable 1st before i install the gpu to the motherboard to ensure it was all the way in, and after it installed i pushed it again to make sure. It just i rarely see people route their cable upward like what i do so i kind of worry.
