I assembled my entire new PC build without realizing I had to hide the CPU power wires behind the cable bar. This is my first project, so please forgive me. I’m checking if I can keep the CPU power wires tucked away like this or if the GPU heat might harm them. The wires are stuck between the GPU and the case, touching the GPU itself. Plus, the motherboard power cable is positioned near the GPU too. Beyond looks, does it really matter?

Take the effort to get it done correctly.
It might not seem as tough as it appears, and you'll also avoid many concerns.
Plus, the pride of spotting and resolving issues is rewarding.
My opinion = "do it again".
That's all my thoughts on this.
