Are Cable extensions safe?

I'm changing my case and I'm going all out and I was wanting cable extension to add some personality into it. What cables extension companies are reputable when it comes to cable extensions. I'm in the UK and I'm not wanting to wait a long time for it.

I got a set from amazon from the brand EZ-DIY, about 25 quid for a core set (2 PCIe 1 CPU and 1 24 pin) they seem good so far, i can send you pics of them installed when i get home after work

EDIT: Oh to give a little more info on them, I installed them on Sunday past and have played Lies of P 1440P maxed settings 170fps (so decently GPU heavy) and Helldivers 2 (though it crashes above 60fps so it isnt actually super taxing on my components) on them so far, no issues that i can see yet, havent pushed my CPU to any high limit yet but my GPU has certainly come close to its limit and it held up fine and draws double and almost triple more than my CPU can

System specs:

 

 

CPU: Ryzen 7 7800X3D [-30 PBO all core]

GPU: Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT NITRO+ [1050mV, 2.8GHz core, 2.6Ghz mem]

As promised, dont mind the obnoxious use of cable combs on the PCIe cable, the damn thing wouldnt sit how i wanted it to

It is safe as long the cable itself made well.

 

Mind you I never bought from these stores, but did heard their [company] name several times
