    Those are for desktop cards.
    Not sure where you can buy them for laptops.

    The guy selling the card said the model number for the cable is #B2475050G00005, this is proving to be of no help in finding it for me though. This is gonna suck if I can't find it.

    The ignorance of Alienware/dell amazes me. I call them up to see if they have the cable and after about 25 minutes of searching they say they have it and it will be $43. So I go ahead and get it, check the order status and find out they ordered me a freakin fiber optic cable for ethernet purposes. Come on!
