Regardless of the effort I apply to insert this cable into my power supply, there remains a minuscule space—under 1mm on one side. Is this acceptable for the 5070 Ti? The only method to observe this small gap is by examining it from a highly accurate perspective.

Was das Kunststoffschloss beim Einbau des Kabels in die PSU angehalten? Wenn ja, sind Sie sicher und der kleine Spalt macht keine Differenz.

the plastic latch clicked securely into position. i tried to reposition it and managed to fit it completely without any small space.

I also have another concern. Would this be too much for the 12V-2x6 wire? I currently have a 90-degree bend from Corsair, and I'm wondering if it's acceptable until I receive the updated cable.

Check the measurement, it seems much too sharp.

Until you obtain the 90 degree cable/connector, execute the build without the side panel to avoid such sharp bends.

I attempted to adjust it as much as possible, but the cable's weight prevents it from staying straight as shown in the picture. It appears this is the current state. Is this an improvement?

Well, it looks better but I'd run it without the side panel until the new cable/adapter comes. Just to be sure. Not that the RTX 5070 Ti would draw as much power as the RTX 4090/5090 does, which increases the chance of melting the connector, but safer is better, isn't it?

I aim to be cautious. It might just be a 5070 Ti, but it would have been expensive, and I wouldn't want a $30 cable damaging that.
