As in the title i bought a Alienware graphics amplifier with a gtx 1070, Since it uses a silver power supply and ketchup/mustard cables, Am i able to change these or are they just dell specific?

My crystal ball is malfunctioning, can you provide a photo of PSU label and 24-pin motherboard connector (from both sides so we can see colors of the wires) ?

Oh i havent received it yet, its coming tomorrow and i was gonna see if i can order parts to replace the psu/cables. since there is only 1 model of this can i just get a picture from google?

Ah, i see, i thought it's a PC but it's essentially just an external GPU, should be compatible with any GPU which fits in the enclosure as far as i'm concerned.

If you can, would you update the thread with your experience with the external GPU, i have a Alienware 15 r3, and i would like to get one when the next generation of GPUs from Nvidia launch, the feedback would be much appreciated

The external power cable can be swapped ( don’t know about internal wiring maybe it’s some proprietary cable layout)

Here is what it looks like:

 

The PSU is a Dell 0C3CMT or equivalent

 

It looks like it is standard ATX12V as others have replaced the PSU. There is quite a bit of information out there relative to this activity.
