EPS connector to 4pin header problem

[PSenapus]

Hello,

 

This is a simple question I can't however find a good reply to.
I've been trying searching but nothing came up, unfortunately the search keywords confuse the engines

I have gifted my friend a new graphics card, however it's too long to fit her case at this time.

Well, I'm planning to upgrade my friend's computer case this spring

 

To do so, I've bought a bitfenix EPS cable extension, the kind of cable extension that has an 8 pin male electricpenis that does not split to 4+4pin layout
I've just noticed my friend's motherboard has an old design, we're talking about an MSI 880GMA-E35 (FX)

As you can see from the picture, the header of this motherboard is in a stupid position and it also is a 4 pin header.

My problem is that my friend doesn't live in my country, and I can't check if the cable will fit.

I can see on the left of the header there is a large choke but I am not sure if the EPS connector's half that won't be plugged in will extend on that side or the other.
Can anybody tell if it should fit or not?

 

TL;DR: Looking at the picture, do you think an unsplittable 8-pin eps cable will fit the space this motherboard has around the atx 4-pin?

 

Please let me know.

Pretty sure you can have it set up so that the leftover 4 pins could hang over the other side.

Thank you for the opinion,

Anyone else?

I had no problem, I have MSI mb with 4pin and Corsair psu with eps(8 pin), there is enough space for extra 4pins.

At the end, no, on this motherboard, the other 4 pins are going to hit the choke.
I am forced to get a 4 pin extension.
Thank you for your opinion anyway.
