Corsair aftermarket cables for their psu

clone · 11 Jan 2013 at 09:55

I have the corsair AX 1200 PSU and was thinking of buying a set of their braided cables for it,now i have done and had braided cables before in my pc builds but i would like to see how people that have them get on with them.

Failing buying the corsair one`s im thinking of getting some BitFenix Alchemy ones to replace the stock ones on the psu as i have a pin remover and that way i can use the fittings on the corsair and just remove the cables from it,i know that if the psu had to go back for rma they dont want the cables sent back just the bare psu.

If you connect the Bitfenix cables straight to your psu, surely they will be to short.

Even if they reach the components, you wouldn't get any form of cable management.

Dont see that being a problem as i have the Silverstone Raven RV02-E White and the psu is well placed in this case.

In this piccy the psu is on the right side and as you can see the pcie cables have plenty of room.

The Bitfenix Alchemy are just braided extension cables. Most of which are half the length of the Corsair cables.
