Swiso Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) Hello, Just bought the AX1600i PSU, and saw that the 24-pin ATX socket it has 28 pin... Can I use the 24-pin cable that I already have for the old AX1500i or I need to buy a new cable specifically for this PSU ? After checking the cable if it will plug, it look that I can plug it like this: https://ibb.co/jrc5fcN Is there any problem in doing that ? What you recommend ? Thank you very much Edited March 30, 2021 by Swiso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attempting to do so will not only risk damaging your PSU but also any hardware you plug it into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a suitable cable right ? https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Corsair-Premium-Sleeved-Starter-Generation/dp/B07L67CD33/ref=psdc_1626220031_t2_B01N1QHS9O?th=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
