Hello everyone! Wanting to do some wire management and looking for some quality pci-e cables that are sleeved and one piece (if they make them) for my RTX 3080ti FTW card.
I really wish EVGA would make the PowerLink again. I used it for my 1080ti and loved it.
Wondering if any of you can give me some suggestions on some that have worked well for you. Thanks for your time!

    What do you mean by “one piece?” Do you
    Mean non-Y/daisy chain cables? If so, check out CableMod or even EVGA had some individually-sleeved kits last I checked.

    I didn’t know the proper word for it, but I did check out cable mods and they call it “Bridged”. Basically all three, 8 Pin cables are joined tight together, with combs. I just got to figure out how long I need them, and order them. Thanks for the advice! Never knew about the cable mod site before and it looks like they have exactly what I want! Thanks again

    Imho you should be able to obtain some textile sleeving of appropriate size and feed all three existing cables through it with the connectors still on, the stuff expands quite a bit.  Stagger the connectors as you feed the cables.  Then just tuck the unfinished end under.  You can also get a fairly clean look by bundling with small black zip ties.
     
    Bundling power wires together can be a concern for heating up too much, but if you're under 200w per cable it's probably going to be OK, maybe.

    I used Asiahorse in my latest updates.  Simple and inexpensive.  Challenge is that these use 3 PCI-E cables, so you would likely have to buy 2 kits like I did.  Just carried the rest over to my 2080ti card and cleaned up an older case.
