Graphics card cable management!

[krisosha]

So with a 560ti in my unit which I picked up for $100 and am now hitting 50-60 fps at full res on most games I am now looking for a way to manage my cables.

Currently both sides of the door don't close, what has everyone else done in regards to this?

60fps is good, but you can't close he by a cover For me it is ****.

Doesn't the 560Ti use 6 pin power cables? So can't you just get two Mac Pro 6pin PCIe cables that plug into the motherboard.

Buy two of these, and get power directly from the Logic Board.

These are the cables that come stock on the Mac Pro if it had the upgraded video card.
