Are modular PSU cables, interchangeable?

[Anton LeChuck]

Hi all

I'm missing a CPU power cable for my Seasonic focus 550fx!

Building a new AMD kit, using an MSI MPG X570 motherboard, which comes with both an 8pin and 4pin CPU configuration - not come accross this before. The powesupply has a single 8 pin (splitable!) CPU cable

which leaves me needing another 4 pin. Cant find anything at seasonic.

Do I specifically need a seasonic cable, or will any PSU brand cable do?

struggling to find a solution, gutted my shiny new kit will sit here dormant for the want of a £5 cable! Doh!


Thanks for any help!

Thanks for everyones input, I've returned the PSU now getting a phatter one tommorow with the required cables.

Learnt far more that I thought I needed to regarding PSU's this last 24 hours, meh!
