Hi all, it's my first time building a desktop, and it's an ITX build. I've heard the issue about GPU cable before, so I got the latest Cooler Master V SFX Gold 750 PSU with ATX 3.1 cable and included cable with 90-degree connector. But I found I still need to bend the cable kind hard to make it through. Can anyone comment on it or give some suggestions?

That still tugs. Not ideal.

That's also what I thought, currently my idea is to increase the length of standoff screw of mother board from 6mm to 10 or 15 mm if possible, to make more space for the cable. Is there other way to make it better?

You're fine. I've gotten away with much worse.

I hope so, I am able to boot up the build with post fine, but just afraid of long term issue. I expect my use cases will keep GPU running on high usage for days or weeks sometimes.
