Title: CMStorm Quickfire Rapid - Where can you get cables that fit?
Post by: Coronado is dead on Mon, 30 July 2012, 09:20:17

Just got this board in last week and want to tote it back and forth from the office each day (and leave a cable hooked up there and one hooked up at home).

I notice that it is a USB mini connection, but the housing around the USB mini part is smaller than any other USB mini cable I own.  Any suggestions where to find other cables that fit?

Thanks all!

Try calling or emailing the Cooler Master USA store / customer service. I needed case part(s) a while back (before they expanded their online store), and they helped me out at a very reasonable price.

Wow, online tech support was extremely friendly and offered to send me a second cable for free. Props to Cooler Master!

That is very good of them.

I just took a stanley knife to the housing around the mini usb connection of the cable and carved it down till it fit lol.
