HX750i compatible cable


Go to solution Solved by LeDoyen,

Recommended Posts

Hello, 

I bought a server powered by a HX750i and needed to add some disk + GPU (3090)

The problem is that I lack some of the cables (1 x SATA and 2x PCIE 8 pins ) to do so. 
Problem 1 : Corsair cables are not compatible from one PSU to another
Problem 2 : Where can I find such compatible cables ?

If I check the graph, it looks like I need Type 3 cables

Sata : is this  sata power cable compatible ?
PCIE: is this PCIE cable compatible ?

PSU cable compatibility :  legacy

the old HXi are type 3 but really, only the motherboard 24 pin differs from type 4.

you can get type 4 cables for PCIE and sata since they are probably easier to source (notice even type 4 psus use "type3" pata/sata)

Ok, does the type 4 generation (3 or 4) has any impact ? I can go for any of them regardless ?
Also, while looking for cables in the boxes, I found a PCIE type 3 cable, with a 8 pin input and 2 x 8 pin output. Can I use it to fill the 2 x 8 pin of my GPU ?
If not, can I combine the type 3 with a type 4 ?
Thanks

Just as @LeDoyen said ... PCIe, EPS, and peripheral cables are the same through the Corsair line. Only the ATX differs. Type 4 PCIe and EPS may have the inline capacitors but those aren't necessary. The pinouts for everything except the 24-pin ATX motherboard connector are the same between Type 3 and Type 4.

It's a big reason why all of my PSUs are Corsair.
