All lengths have a tolerance of 10 mm. PATA plugs are the 4-pin Molex plugs. The 12V-2x6 to 2x 8-pin cable is stored as a PCIe 8-pin cable with 2 plugs. It and the 12V-2x6 cable both plug into the native 12V-2x6 socket of the PSU, as Hardware Busters says the modular panel has one native 12V-2x6 header. The Cybenetics report and Hardware Busters list the 2x 8-pin cable as 2 cables with 2 connectors, which does not match Corsair's listing. Gauges come from the Cybenetics report.2Owner's manualcorsair.com/us/en/explorer/diy-builder/power-supply-units/corsair-rmx-shift-series-2nd-generationRead 15 October 2026Included cables for the RM850x, with the SATA count stated for the 850W: 1x ATX 24-pin 610 mm, 2x EPS 4+4-pin 650 mm, 2x PCIe 8-pin 650 mm, 1x 90-degree 12V-2x6 to 2x 8-pin PCIe 650 mm, 1x 90-degree 12V-2x6 to 600W 12V-2x6 650 mm, 3x SATA, 1x PATA.5Measurementcybenetics.com/evaluations/psus/2879Read 15 October 2026Cables and Connectors table: ATX 24 pin 610 mm 16-20AWG, 2 x 4+4 pin ATX12V 650 mm 18AWG, 2 x 6+2 pin PCIe 650 mm 18AWG, 2 x 2x 6+2 pin PCIe 650 mm 18AWG, 12+2 pin PCIe 650 mm (600W) 16-24AWG, 3 SATA cables with 9 plugs in total 18AWG and 1 Molex cable with 4 plugs 18AWG, no in-cable capacitors.
