    Akasa Proslim !
     
    These cables are amazing. You can even shorten them (insulation displacement connectors). But it is not really easy to do : you will find tutorials.
     
    The connectors are straight but with a very small form factor, so you won't have to worry about "90° up" or "90° down".

    why make it simple when it can be complicated ????
     
    rig 1 : Asus P9X79-E WS / i7 4930k / 3-way SLI EVGA 780ti / Quadro K2000 / watercooled / 3D Vision Surround / 3 x Samsung 2233RZ + HP ZR22W
    rig 2 : Asus P9X79 WS / i7 4930k / 2-way SLI 770 / aircooled / 3D Vision / Samsung 2233RZ + Samsung 2232BW + HP ZR22W
    rig 3, 4 5, etc. : uninteresting !

    You can angle the cable up or down, at 90°, and the result is smaller than any 90° connector ! I had no room for standard straight or 90° connectors (mobo edge and HDD cages), could'nt find "up" connectors at one end, down at the other, and needed super flexible cables (problematic cable management) : they 100% solved the problem : no need of right angled connectors ; they are "universal". Even with pics, it's difficult to see how tiny and flexible they are ! Just had to bend the cable the way it was needed. Unfortunatly, I did'nt take pics with a standard 90° cable for comparison. I love them.
