Cables and connectors

5 of 7 differ

CablesiOne row per kind of cable that runs from the PSU to a device. Connector is the plug at the device end. Count is the number of those plugs over all cables in the row. Length runs from the PSU end to the first plug. Adapters that plug into other cables are left out. Use 16-pin PCIe when the maker names a 16-pin GPU cable without saying 12V-2x6 or 12VHPWR. A cable from a 12V-2x6 socket on the PSU to 8-pin plugs is a cable, not an adapter, and counts as PCIe 8-pin. When the maker's documents name one GPU cable both 12VHPWR and 12V-2x6, use 16-pin PCIe and name both in the source note. Cables of one connector kind with different lengths or wire gauges get one row each.

All lengths have a tolerance of 10 mm. PATA plugs are the 4-pin Molex plugs. The listing and the quick start guide say 12VHPWR, but the Overview calls the GPU cable a PCIe 5.1 12V-2x6 cable and the Corsair 12V-2x6 explainer lists it as a 12V-2x6 cable. The maker names it both ways, so it is stored as 16-pin PCIe. The page does not rate the cable.

The 16-24AWG range of the 12V-2x6 cable includes the sideband wires, so no gauge is stored for it. The ATX gauge is not stored because the Hardware Busters copy prints 16-20AWG and 310 mm. The 600W rating is printed next to the 12-pin cable.

Inside the Box lists one dual 8-pin cable, one single 6+2-pin cable, two SATA cables and one peripherals cable. The dual 8-pin cable has a 16-pin plug at the PSU end, so it counts as PCIe 8-pin with 2 plugs. The manual lists the 12V-2x6 cable as option 1 and the 6+2-pin or dual 8-pin cable as option 2, and the dual 8-pin cable plugs into the 12V-2x6 socket on the PSU. The lengths are the maker's. Wire gauges and the 600 W rating of the 12V-2x6 cable come from Cybenetics and the overview text (a 600W 12V-2x6 connector). Cybenetics lists 475 mm and 105 mm for the same cables. It counts the dual 8-pin cable as 2 cables, which is not used.

No-load covers no-load operation and no-load protection. Fan failure is a maker's fan failure protection or fan safeguard, also when the Cybenetics manufacturer block lists it.

WeightiWeight of the unit alone. Use the Hardware Busters figure on hwbusters.com when the maker states none, not a copy on another site.
