I was quite livid that these cables didn't fit my now 2 year old 1000 Watt HX1000i. After calming down, I figured out I would be able to use all but the main power cable, and will have to buy another one with sleeves for $50, but that beats having to purchase a new $200 power supply.
What I failed to grasp is that certain older power supplies (mine) from 2017-2018 use Type 3 cables. The 24 pin power connector (Type 3) has 2 parts that connect directly to the PSU, and one side of them is 14 pins (7+7). The new type 4 uses 18 pins (9+9) and doesnt fit.
It would be nice for Amazon to list this as it would stop a great deal of confusion when purchasing these.
If you power supply has Type 3 cables, it very clearly says so on the sides of the power connectors that plug in to the PSU. Same goes for Type 4.
Also from what I have learned, Type 4 cables work fine in a Type 3 power supply. I am currently using the cables from this kit for PCI-E power and 4+4 CPU power. Just not the main 24 pin power.
The cables look and work great, so I am changing my review from a 1 to a 4.
It really stinks to be inconvenienced like this, but its 90% of the way there so I can't stay mad.
Amazon, please update your listings on these cables to read Type 3 or Type 4 and to check your PSU.
