So my old computer crashed yetserday. I live by tigerdirect and frys. So I went and purchased a whole bunch of new parts (cpu, mobo, video card, memory, hard drive, case). The case I got is the p180 and I love the design, however the motherboard 12v cable is about 3 inches too short on my current power supply (a 500W Ultra cheapo). So right now my case is on its side with the powersupply hanging off the side of it. So I need a extension for the 12V motherboard cable. I don't think I can find one of these locally, so that means I'd have to wait until at least monday/tuesday to get my computer all put together. If I could find an extension locally I'd go for that. If I can't find that, I'm thinking I might just go buy a new power supply. My 500W isn't the best and I don't know how well it will hold up in my new system anyway. The main power hogs are the CPU (e6600), and two video cards (a x1800gto which is going to be replaced by a x1900xt, and an old 9250). So what do you guys think I should do?
