I am looking at getting blue CableMod cables for my mobo 24pin and this front GPU

Don't know what to get for the front GPU cables..

1. What are these cables called?

2. (These are 6 pin each with a 2 pin addition on each one making them 8 pin total) What size do I get?

Yes, since you have a modular power supply

why do you need more? adding another gpu?

 

edit: make sure that the power supply can run all that hardware. you may need more watts. idk about the 980's tdp
