I have a Seasonic Focus Plus 750w Platinum, however I seem to have misplaced the PCIe cables for it ( https://www.overclockers.co.uk/seas...-platinum-modular-power-supply-ca-05v-ss.html )

I'm assuming that I would have to use actual Seasonic cables, I heard that PCIe cables for other PSU brands may have a different pin layout. Are these generally available (I don't see any on OCuk) or do I need to go down the custom cable route to get replacements?
 
That's useful link - thanks.

Though so far I can only find custom cable kits that are close to the cost of buying a new PSU :( Looking on the auction site, there are few affordable options but they are a bit sus (eg. plugging in to the CPU 8-pin to get 2 PCIe 8 pins!)
 
@Steviepunk You can use the ones it OEM's for so that would be Phanteks and ROG etc. Is there any particular one that your after?

Ed -
Email them. I did and they sent me a cable for the new nvidia pins for my older Seasonic.

Since then I upgraded to a phanteks and the cable fits the same.

I just need the PCIe cable that provides 2 x 6+2 connectors for a GPU, I've had a look around for Asus and Phanteks on various sites as well but so far all I've found are the CableMod packs. I've been going through various boxes at home to see if I work out where I would have put the cable... I'm usually quite good a keeping things like that, so suspecting I might have accidentally thrown it out.
 
No customs charge, the delivery was from Germany.

The only annoying part is that I could only pay via bank transfer or PayPal Ballance, PayPal via card payment was not accepted.
Yep having the same conversation about getting the 12P cable for the FE cards - kinda felt dodgy considering how you could pay. Thanks that puts my mind at ease - did it take that long?

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
When the cable for the FE was required, as I didn't qualify for the free upgrade period, I was pointed to another company in Germany, which is an official retailer.
Payment using PayPal as mentioned above, but item arrived quick and no issues with custom or anything.
I wouldn't recommend unbranded or eBay cheapo cables, specially now at current GPU prices.
