Need help with cable mod

[TurkishBTW]

Recently I have been wanting to find a 90 degree cable for my gpu. currently I have an asus tuf 4070ti super. While looking through my box for the gpu they offer a cable mod discount. And I was just wondering if anyone could help explain the 90 degree cable options to me. I want to get this cable https://store.cablemod.com/product/cablemod-c-series-pro-modmesh-sleeved-12vhpwr-90-degree-stealthsense-pci-e-cable-for-corsair/ I currently have a corsair 1000e and wasnt too sure if the cable was compatible. Also I dont really understand the two different variants. I read the description but its not clicking. so if anyone could elaborate on it would be very appreciated. BTW as of rn the gpu is vertically mounted if it made a difference with the variants

Essentially its where the GPU notches are on the power connector. This is either at the bottom or top of it. If you got a top notched GPU, Variant A. If you got a bottom notched GPU, Variant B. If you want the cable to run to the top above the backplate, flip the purchase decision, though for 12VHPWR i would run it downward by default to reduce straining. But if you got vertical for most part it wont matter.

 

Also, right cable. RMe line uses Type 4 cable.

Thank you for the response! Wouldn’t it be variant A because the 12vhpwr connector clips at the top and you said type 4 cable I couldn’t really find where it says that but the one I linked I’m pretty sure your saying is correct

Not the adapter end. The one on the GPU board.

No. It's the latch that holds the power connector into the GPU..

Ohhh I didn’t notice that, I had the same idea but thought it was the different angle the cable was at thank you!
