# Angular Cable Adapters CableMod Launched 90-Degree Versions of its 12VHPWR Power Cable By Colin Smith | Published 2023-03-30 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/12vhpwr References: [overclock3d.net](https://www.overclock3d.net/reviews/gpu_displays/cablemod_90_and_180_degree_12vhpwr_adapter_guide/1) & [cablemod](https://cablemod.com/)  CableMod has created a brand new 90-degree adapter for the 16-pin 12VHPWR power plug found on [Nvidia’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/12vhpwr-gpu-power) [RTX 4090](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aorus-geforce-rtx-4090). The adapter is designed to significantly reduce the power cable’s profile and make the 90-degree bend less obtrusive. The CableMod 12VHPWR 90-Degree Angled Adapter plugs into your graphics card’s 16-pin 12VHPWR port and enables the power cable to be plugged in at a 90-degree angle. The adapter only protrudes 21mm from your graphics card, which means increased space and more clearance between your GPU and your side panel. The CableMod 12VHPWR 90-Degree Angled Adapter is available for pre-order starting October 31st. It is also available in two variants: a 90-degree adapter and a 180-degree adapter. The advantage of this adapter is that you don’t need to bend your PCIe cable/adapter, limiting the risks of melting the connector.
