    P182 PSU cable length

    Hello!

    I have finally managed to pick up the P182, but I'm having some trouble with my current PSU, specifically the cable length. My mobo is an Asus Maximus Formula, and the...umm...four pin power connector (sorry, I'm not up on my terminology!) on the board is at the top left. Thing is, my PSU cables aren't nearly long enough to reach up to it. Can anyone point me in the direction of a PSU that has enough cable length to reach the connection?

    Thanks,

    Alex

    No need for a new PSU.

    Get an extension cable from Maplin http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=34109 or places online like scan or even pc world.

    Yep, I used a 8 Pin EPS12V extender when I had my 902, worked wonders!
