Are These Good Cable Extensions

[SkyPhantom]

I was looking at Amazon and some previous posts here and I was wondering if these would be good, cheap cable extensions. I was looking for something under 30 USD.

My only concern is that I remember hearing that those taped up things at things at the end of PSU cables were capacitors or something and I want to make sure I wouldn't be messing anything up with extensions.

I have not used them myself, but I have seen people who use them and also PCI cable extenders, I have not seen anyone complaining about.

Sorry, I probably could've said that better. The psu cables I'm using (the ones the came with the psu) have inline capacitors that I believe are for reducing ripple. I was wondering if by adding cable extensions I would be messing up something with the cables. The capacitors are at the very end of the cables, so I'm thinking extending the distance from the capacitor to the graphics card or motherboard  or whatever would mess something up.

Does anybody have any long term experience with these cables. I want to make sure they are safe and good quality. Also the Amazon listing doesn't give many details about what types of cables there are. I need two 8pin PCIe cables for my graphics card.

Did you try contacting the seller and ask the material used (Titanium, gold, platinum...)? Manufacturers don't like to add anything unnecessary to their products, and I've never heard that adding more cable adds more ripple since ripple is how much voltage supplied to your PSU's rails fluctuates, voltage from the outlets cause the fluctuations. Let's wait for the rest to see if someone can help clarify this better...
