Cables for PC build

AveragePCguy · March 23, 2015

So as many of you know I'm in the process of building a PC gaming rig for the first time. I have ordered all my parts and they should all hopefully be shipped out soon (looking at you NCIX). I just decided this morning when I woke up that I wanted a backplate for my 970, I did some looking and found one on amazon for $23 but since I'm a cheap ass and rarely use amazon I need to spend an extra couple dollars to qualify for free shipping.

So, I figured I'd stock on some misc cables that I might need to make my build a little more "cleaner". What are some good cables to have laying around or have spares of?

Here are my current parts
