The Aurora kit dresses ATX and GPU cabling, leaving CPU power outside its listed set

Two shells arrive in the box, and it's worth being precise about which two runs they're actually built for before assuming the kit covers every visible cable in a build. AsiaHorse's Aurora ARGB cover kit dresses the ATX board connection and the graphics power run - the processor power cable sits outside what this particular kit was designed to light, and knowing that upfront avoids any mismatch between expectation and what actually arrives.

Quick Answer

The R699 Aurora kit's listed contents are a 24-pin cover and an eight-pin graphics cover - two shells, two specific runs. The processor power connection is outside what this kit dresses and stays exactly as it is once the kit is fitted. A build wanting light at that particular run needs a different product entirely, not a third shell tacked onto this same kit.

📦 Which runs the kit actually dresses

The 24-pin motherboard power run and the eight-pin graphics power run - those are the two covers the kit contains, named directly in the product listing. Nothing beyond those two runs is included or implied by the kit's contents.

❓ Why is the processor power run left out?

Simply because the kit is sold and built as a two-piece set specifically covering those two runs. The processor connection sits outside its listed scope entirely - not an oversight, just a different product's job rather than something this particular kit was ever meant to include.

👁️ Does that leave a visible gap in some builds?

It can, particularly on layouts where the top edge of the motherboard sits in clear view through the case window rather than being shaded by a tall CPU cooler that would otherwise hide most of that connector area from sight.

🔦 What could cover that run instead, if lighting is wanted there too?

A lit connector cable specifically for the processor power socket is the more relevant approach for that particular run - putting light directly at the plug itself rather than tracing along the length of a cable, which is a genuinely different product category to the cover shells in this kit.

➕ Can a third shell simply be added to extend the kit?

Not really, since the Aurora kit is sold as a fixed pair rather than an expandable modular system - anything covering a third run would need to come as a separate product entirely, matched as closely as possible to the existing pair's finish and style.

✨ Is the gap more noticeable once the other two shells are lit?

It can be, in a strange sort of way - two genuinely bright, actively lit spans running elsewhere in the case can actually make a plain, undressed processor run stand out more by contrast than it would have if nothing around it were lit at all.

✅ Does leaving that run out make the kit feel incomplete?

Not really, when the framing is right - it covers the two runs most visible and most commonly lit in a typical build, which is exactly what the contents are actually built around rather than trying to cover every power cable in the case at once.

For anyone weighing up how to handle the processor run separately, Evetech's case lighting range has a few relevant options, alongside the cable management accessories that cover tidying whatever the Aurora kit itself doesn't reach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cable runs does the kit actually dress?

The 24-pin board run and the eight-pin graphics run - the two covers explicitly listed as the kit's contents.

Why is the processor power run excluded from the kit?

The kit is sold as a two-piece set covering those two specific runs, so the processor connection sits outside its listed scope entirely.

Does that leave a visible gap in some builds?

It can, particularly where the top edge of the motherboard is in clear view rather than shaded by a tall CPU cooler.

What could cover the processor run instead?

A lit connector cable at the processor socket is a different approach, putting light at the plug rather than along a cable's length.

Can a third shell be added to extend this kit?

Not really - it's sold as a fixed pair rather than an expandable system, so a third run would need a separate product entirely.

Is the gap more noticeable once the other two runs are lit?

It can be - two genuinely bright spans elsewhere can make an undressed third run stand out more by contrast than it otherwise would.

Does leaving that run uncovered make the kit feel incomplete?

Not particularly - it covers the two runs most visible in a typical build, which is what the contents are actually designed around.
