I have a Corsair HX620 and thinking of getting these for my forthcoming white NZXT case :

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-081-CS&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=1084

Says HX range but does list mine at the bottom.

Do you think they are compatible?

edit .. it say only

Can't you grab some from your warehouse and test 'em with a HX model from one of your test benches?

Unfortunately, I don't work for OcUK so don't have that luxury

OH SORRY!

As a 'Don' I simply made the assumption :rolleyes:

Admiral Huddy · 8 Apr 2013 at 12:44

That's ok, easy assumption to make

Take their compatibility as gospel.
I bought a white kit for the AX850 thinking it'd be fine on my AX860.... it was not, by a long shot. Hardly any of the connectors fit.

EDIT: Looks as though they don't do a kit for the HX620. The HX620 i assume is the old model, they don't even do that PSU any more.

Hmm point taken but they don't list the AX range.. They do the HX but not the HX620 specifically.

Your PSU has never had 'Pre-sleeved' cable kits available (It's a good few generations old). You could have a go at sleeving them yourself? Paracord is an easy and cheap solution, results are satisfying too...

My HX620 is fast approaching the end of it's 7 year warranty I'm sure yours must be pretty old too.

Even though I can't fault it I'm putting some serious thought into a new PSU as inevitably it will go pop

There are separate kits for the AX range in GEN1, GEN 2 and another separate one for the AX1200 as well.

My hx620 is still go going strong, is it possible to use good quality adaptor cables to suit your purposes?

What's the reason for new cables? Have you lost some of the original ones? If it's for looks you could just re sleeve them? Black and white will still work if colour scheme is an issue?
