That’s a poor response. How the heck are you meant to read that compatibility chart. I presume you look along the top for the power supply, Oh and look, it has a column for AX gold, but in brackets it states excludes ax1200. So you can’t tell me what sort of plugs are on the AX 1200, so it sounds like Corsair decided to make the AX1200 gold and put completely different plugs on it compared to all the other power supplies. So then someone who has a AX1200 gold and lives outside of the USA cannot purchase a cable for it. Great work Corsair

So can I buy cables from you guys, what type of plug is used for the SATA cable

So are the AX1200 Gold plugs the same as any other model

I’m not an expert but I think in that picture you posted is this. The GPU has a certain current draw so you gotta give it a certain amount of power. Now your two seperate black cables coming from your power supply into the Y connector, they each carry a certain amount of power from the PSU. By joining them with that Y cable your giving that GPU more power than just the single cable. Just like later GPUs have the 8 pin and 6 pin sockets, they need more power so the6 need to get it from two seperate rails in the PSU. I’m pretty sure that’s how it works. So yes, you can remove that Y cable and just connect one black cable directly to your GPU, but only if you know your PSU can deliver enough power from the one rail.

Hi everyone, 2 questions for you experts. 1. Can someone post a photo of the pin outs for the AX1200 Gold series, I’m led to believe they are different to other AX series. I need to make up cables I can’t get locally or easily. 2. I can get cables to suit AXI, HXI and RM power supplies, does the AX1200 gold have the same SATA plug ends as those power supplies, that way I could purchase those cables and just change the pin outs. Thanks heaps Sarimus
