Just put an 8800gts in my pc and the card gets in the way of my sata ports. I can use the l-shape sata ports but even the l-shape ones get in the way of the connectors behind it. Are there any ultra low profile cables i can use. I have a p5k premium btw.
Ultra Low Profile 30AWG SATA II DATA Cable Yellow
how about that?
looks about as low profile you'll get it tbh.

That might just do it, worth a shot anyway. Cheers, was looking on google very quickly this morning but i must have been half asleep.
Another look on google shows the 270 degree sata cables which look like they would do the job too!
Rapid sell them really cheap. Have alook.
it wont work trust me had the same problem and got that cable didnt work
Ommid, what one the left angle cable or the ultra low profile?
the angled, but i know that there isnt enough clearance, try poking a normal sata cable in the gap just like wedge it in
i have a p5k-e
i have the BFG 8800GTS
i use 2 right angle sata cables
you will only have 4 sata ports availble though, 2 are either blocked by the cables or by the cards
i'll post a pic if you want me too
Found some of these while browsing ebay, thought somebody wanted some of these...then I remembered Hexus!

I bought two left angles (270) sata cables from cablecity. Just plugged them in now and its all fine.
Totem which mode of cable did you buy? Pics would be awesome dude :)

I have a few of these (18") Startech right-angle SATA cables in my rigs :)
Do you know the height of the right-angled connector by any chance mate?
