sblantipodi Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I just bought the Corsair individually sleaved cables kit CP-8920052 I noticed that the 24 pin ATX connector isn't there. Hey seriously? I spent 100€ for that kit. Should I spend something else for the ATX cable? I don't even find that cable in shops. Wtf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees Corsair Mint Posted September 20, 2018 Corsair Employees Share Posted September 20, 2018 The Type 3 Individually Sleeved cable kits specifically do not come with the 24-pin cable, this page lists out the cables that do come with it and the 24-pin is not included. https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Accessories-%7C-Parts/PC-Components/Power-Supplies/Professional-Individually-sleeved-DC-Cable-Kit%2C-Type-3-%28Generation-2%29%2C-METALLIC-GRAPHITE/p/CP-8920052 You'd want to get this cable to complete the set: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Accessories-%7C-Parts/PC-Components/Power-Supplies/Individually-Sleeved-24pin-ATX-Cable-Type-3-%28Generation-2%29%2C-METALLIC-GRAPHITE/p/CP-8920053 Better link showing 24-pin cables: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/search/?q=Individually+Sleeved+24pin+ATX+Cable+Type+3+%2640%3BGeneration+2%2641%3B%3Arelevance%3AfirstLevelCategorySearch%3ACor_Products_Accessories_Parts%3AaccessoryType%3AATX+24-pin+cable%3AaccessoryName%3AType+3+Gen.+2+Individually+Sleeved+Cables&text=Individually+Sleeved+24pin+ATX+Cable+Type+3+%2640%3BGeneration+2%2641%3B#rotatingText Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees Corsair Kevin Posted September 21, 2018 Corsair Employees Share Posted September 21, 2018 Hi sblantipodi, individually sleeving cables isn't a walk in the park, sadly, and if you've ever done it manually, I think you'd agree that it's far less hassle to just buy them. I'm going to wager the 24-pin was offered separately for those who just wanted to replace that and none of the other cables since it is arguably the most visible, and difficult to hide, connector in one's system. That being said, I understand your concern and we value your feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Technobeard Posted September 21, 2018 Administrators Share Posted September 21, 2018 Actually, it's because the cables are compatible with multiple PSUs that have been made over the years, but the PSU side of the 24 pin ATX cable isn't always the same between those PSUs. Better to separate that cable out and let someone purchase it on its own rather than someone getting a cable they don't need and then having to purchase it separately anyway.

Part of it is the market, dude. If you get these custom made from any of the 3rd party vendors out there, they'll be even more. And let's be honest - this isn't a required purchase by any stretch of the imagination. It's pure frills and sexiness. Unfortunately, looking good cost $$$$$$.
