Swapping modular cables between PSU's?

Hi all

Just got a lot of new parts, but my housemate took my Enermax modular PSU into labs yesterday to check it (it was involved in a power surge and a mobo fail) but he left the PCI-E modular connector in the labs.

He has a Silverstone modular PSU with a spare PCI-E cable knocking around - is it OK to just switch it? The Silverstone PCI-E cable has the same geometric arrangement as the one on my case, could there be any problem with incompatibilities? (say, different pins meaning different things on the 2 PSU brands?)

Cheers
Dave
 
Cheers, just fired it all up and it's running great! Housemate is a physicist so he took it to the labs to test the rails with the multimeter there. Computer seems solid, Phenom II X4 system.

Thanks again! Fingers crossed no problems.
