Can I swap the cables around and use the non daisychain ends on the gpu, and the D.C. ends in the psu ?

Why do you want to plug your cables in backwards?

You followed the pinout diagrams to ensure all the right voltage pins are in the right place?

Not turning it on like this , don't have the cpu either. But they just match up. 

Match up according to what? There is Ground, 12v+, Sense A and Sense B pins in there, if they're in the wrong places you're going to severely damage something. You're taking a lot of risks without any proper research for aesthetics.

Why do you think I'm asking ? 

And the the cables with the Normal 6+2 side by side go into both the same way. Nothing forced nothing cut , as if they were ment to be there without the daisychain

No CPU yet. No power running . It's why I'm asking if I can do what I want
