When purchasing cables off the shelf, modular PSUs don't adhere to pinout standards. If you require a new cable, consider alternatives from the manufacturer for your specific PSU model or seek a company that offers extensions compatible with your PSU. Using the incorrect cable may cause an electrical short.
I understand, I’ll keep that in mind. Could the issue lie with the GPU? It’s tough since I don’t have another card to test, this is my first PC build, and I’m really confused. I also don’t see many guides for this problem.
It's better to begin with your own thread, providing detailed pc specifications and the issue you're facing. This increases the likelihood of more people noticing your post. Don't forget to switch the thread type to question instead of default discussion so the best answer can be given to whoever resolves your problem.
