I'm planning on buying the DFI SLI-DR Expert board when it comes out. I have an OCZ 520W Powerstream with the 8-pin connector. It's on the same cable with the 4-pin but its half way down the cable instead of at the end of it. I'm afraid that in my case and with the position of the connection on the board it wont reach.

Is there any type of cable extension I can get for it?

Of course not, who would ever conceive of an extension cable for a PSU?

Contact OCZ. :stick:

Of course any EPS extension should work, just get a good one with gold-platted connectors.

Or get a soldering iron.

[WARNING: the PSU can hold dangerous currency even after it is unplugged, so don't try this without required experience]
