Questions about Corsair CP-8920331 Adapter cable

3 years ago

I can't quite figure it out on the Corsair homepage...is an AX1500i power supply compatible with this cable (Type 4)?

The AX1500i power supply supports Type 4 for PCIe power cables. Only the 24-pin mainboard connector is Type 3. Further information here (column "All AXi"): https://www.corsair.com/us...

Does anyone happen to know the difference to the Corsair CP-8920284 cable?

Hi Rolf1984, according to the Corsair website, the CP-8920331 has a three-layer paracord jacket, the CP-8920284 is normally insulated. If I'm interpreting this correctly, it's only visual. Best regards

Attention. The cable can only draw a maximum of 300 watts from the power supply. Since the GPU also draws 75 watts from the board, you will never see more than 375W with an RTX 4090. For many, that may be enough, and that's okay. The 600W that Corsair writes about will never be able to pass through this cable, as the PCIe specification with 8Pin allows a maximum of 150W - please correct me if I'm wrong.

I would be careful, even if the connectors are identical. If you know that Cooler Master uses the same connectors on the PSU side as corsair, then you also have to compare the pinout, they could be different, in which case you would have to extract the individual cables from the connector and rearrange them, this works very well with a Molex extraction tool or with two thin objects, e.g. Bostich clamps, but is tricky. The cable itself is very good and I can recommend it :)
