What's the name of this cable?
(lemmy.world)
Hello everyone, I'm doing some box cleaning and I found a bunch of cables which I'll ask for your help for identification, if you don't mind 🙃
So, as the title says, how do you call this cable?
Thank you!
I made full custom cables for my last build then the PSU died. RMAed it and got a replacement that was on generation newer.
If I hadn't have learned that cables weren't standardized while making the first batch, I would have fried everything in my PC.
I never wound up remaking/rerouting everything so it just looked like shit for the following 2 years. I probably won't make custom cables again for that reason, though it did look really nice
Its for this reason i use straight-through extensions when builing my PC. Lets me route cables where/how i want. Then they connect to the psu cables somewhere sensible and hidden. Adds to the cost but makes the whole build (so upgrades/replacement) so much more modular.
Just have to make sure you get decent ones and not thin core cheap crap.
I almost did the same as you, and decided to beep out some of tge psu cables as i was waiting for the new PSU to arrive. Immediately bought straight extensions, and havent looked back since!
I just went with all black this time to skip out on all of it lol
Pretty much everything is hidden so I used to stock cables
