A friend got a good deal on the I7 tower Z230 but to put in a better PSU for the RX580 he got we need a cable like this

anyone got one or know of somewhere locally we can get one rather than waiting 3 weeks 

 

In Auckland but happy to cover postage

 

Thanks

Depending on sockets types and skill you could try to remove contacts and re-key. But you'll need a circuit diagram.

I suspect it's something you're just going to need to bite the bullet on and get from Ali.. It's far from being a common/standard part.
