hi ,

I have built my PC with a new PSU days ago, a bitfenix formula gold of 550w  , and the cable mangement for me was a bit hard , some cables are harder to route with this PSU, and my case and me didin´t help by much too  I am already not the best doing cable management , the first obstacle was my 24 pin cable that was too large because the tape that is used on the cable to route for any hole on the case , after that I had to route the CPU cable under the GPU because the cable was too short but it´s fine because since it looks like it´s safe by some opinions and don´t look so ugly as it could be IMO , but what is worring me right now are my GPU cables , because I don´t know if it´s safe to have like it is right now , it seems that the cable is so thick , seems like that on the end of the cable when connecting to the GPU connecter does some resistence and it´s touching my side pannel , I don´t have to force the side pannel to close but it touches it.  but the connection seems solid and the gpu doesn´t seem to bend or anything .  I am doing something wrong on the GPU cables? it´s safe like it is ?   tried other ways and the cable had more bends or some twisting that didin´t liked to see .
