Connection cable
Corsair uses 16-AWG for the PCIe connector cables of the graphics card and then the Y-end uses 18-AWG, which is perfectly adequate. All other cables are almost completely 18-AWG, so still sufficiently good and thick in cross-section selected. The thicker cables are all sleeved, SATA and Molex are flat cables. Generally leaving the cables an eye-pleasing black, fits.
Here is an overview of all cables, connections and lengths in tabular form:
Modular cable management | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Description | Number | Connections (total) |
Cross section (gauge) |
In-Cable Capacitors |
ATX connector 20+4 pin (610 mm) | 1 | 1 | 16-20AWG | Yes |
4+4 pin EPS12V (650 mm) | 3 | 3 | 18AWG | Yes |
6+2 pin PCIe (600 mm+150 mm) | 2 | 4 | 16-18AWG | Yes |
SATA (500 mm+110 mm+110 mm+110 mm) | 2 | 8 | 18AWG | No |
SATA (520 mm+110 mm+110 mm) | 2 | 6 | 18AWG | No |
4-pin Molex (450 mm+100 mm+100 mm+100 mm) | 1 | 4 | 18AWG | No |
Mains cable (1400 mm) – C13 coupler | 1 | 1 | 18AWG | – |
Power supply connector and CM board
Corsair relies on a completely modular design for the cable management, which is quite alright. In this case, the most practical wiring is probably also the most visually favorable and most beautiful, because it is a single-rail power supply with all the known advantages and disadvantages.
The board itself is quite neatly (and exemplary) equipped with polymer caps at the relevant places.
With that, we’re getting closer to the inner workings, which Aris has analyzed and dissected quite well. Turn the page, please!
