Trying to find an EPS cable

Raiden8816

As the tittle states, I am trying to find an 8 pin CPU to 4+4 pin (or just 4 pin) EPS that is a sleeved cable, not an extension.

 

I was able to score an ASUS X99 A II + 6800K for $200 locally, which is a nice upgrade from my 5 year old 4690K.

 

This motherboard requires both an 8 pin and a 4 pin for CPU power.  My plan is to just use ASUS overclock utility and be happy with it.

 

I own an EVGA Supernova 850 G2, and I also bought a full sleeved cable mod kit for it.  However, I can’t find that damn 4+4 EPS. 
 

I’m looking to see if someone can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

 

Thank you.

Required? I've yet to see a motherboard that won't boot with only 8 CPU pins. On top of that a single 8 pin pushes over 350 watts, unless you're doing some extreme LN2 overclocking, you won't need those 4 extra pins. 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

I’m probably going to just OC to 4.3-4.5 using the ASUS utility

Then you're fine with using 8 pins only, should spare you the trouble of seeking an extra cable
