Update:

Received the cable last Monday at night. It's the exact same cable with no change in the length or the type, have been trying the cable for 2 days. First time it didn't boot, so I tried to move the cable slightly out of the PCI Express slot and it worked with very very low FPS. Didn't even boot some games. Tried again by moving it out again and it worked but with beeping sound that the VGA has problem. I ignored it and made some tests and it worked flawlessly. And left the PC for 2 days working without rebooting or powering it off as I was already downloading some stuff and also I was afraid that it would do it again.

Restarted the PC yesterday night and it didn't boot since then !!! giving No Signal error on the monitor screen. And it only boots when I take the riser cable off and connect the GPU directly to the slot or when I boot with the integrated GPU.

I tried not to bend the cable and to not to let the shield out of the sockets.

I'm fed up with this issue. I only bought the case to have the GPU front standing as it's too heavy and causes the GPU to sag (Zotac Amp! Extreme GTX 1080).

Have anyone ordered other cable from Thermaltake or any other type like the premium one ??? And how much for the extra fees.

I really like the case as it has many options, but the cable is really destroying my image to Thermaltake.

I found a video on youtube regarding this issue and a test with: EZDIY NEW PCI Express 16x Flexible Cable Card Extension Port Adapter High Speed
And many people even added ratings 5 with a comment regarding Thermaltakes cables... 

I have ordered one my self. Still waiting for it... shall be here in a week or so... 

Good luck!

Update:

Received mail from Thermaltake CS and also Mike for forwarding the case and asking about the postal code and the serial number for the case.
Sent the info needed and waiting for feedback regarding the delivery.


Thanks to Mike for caring.


About the new cables received. Is there any working guaranteed cable to receive, as I heard ppl here receive different cables.

Also, If the premium cable is working. Does it come as a replacement for the faulty one for charge or for free??


Thanks.

 

You did? Didn't get any response at all :/

This is annoying, I also got problems. 
First, my computer started up fast with my x299 Asus Tuf Mark 1 and Thermaltake ps 3 core I got yesterday. 
Later on, I removed the cable because I needed to put in a USB cable on the motherboard. Then gently add the PCIe cable back again. 
This time my boot hanged and the motherboard complaint about VGA. After reading some posts and saw a youtube clip regarding almost the same problem I took it out and put in again and straighten it a little bit. 

Now my computer starts but the boot does not hang but something happening, it takes time to boot up my computer, but no VGA errors. 
Regardless that I can't watch youtube clips anymore. As you can see on my image. I have tried all settings for tearing problems etc...
And I still get this boot issue... When I try my asus gtx 1080 on the pcie slot it works fine. So it's something strange with this cable.
And it's odd that it's not fixed though it seems like the problem has existed back in time... 

Did anyone get the same problem as I?  
1st... Hang at boot when it says press bios. 
2nd...It takes time to boot up stand still at bios screen (have 1 sec on bios so it's not set to higher value regarding boot)
3rd.. Stream videos got tearing regardless of vsync settings, HW acceleration on off (problem in all browsers)
4th... Sometimes I got a driver error, only got it twice after some reboots... Not sure if it was because of reboot after installing a program. 

I haven't tried 3d games yet, I do not have any atm though my computer is fresh installed, 3D Mark worked fine, but cpu benchmark showed tearing videos in the video-test-section. 

Mem is ok, cpu is ok when testing. No problem with heat.
