Hello !

 

So lets get to it.

 

Asus rog thor 850 has single ray but cool rgb effects also it support the " Corsair Premium individually sleeved pro kit (Type 4 Generation 4) " cables that i have ( as far as i know ). The main problem is the 24 pin thing fits on motherboard but not in the hx750i that i currently own. It has like 1 or two extra like output "pins" wich the hx750i dont have.. so, here i am asking you guys:

 

Asus rog thor 850 ( single ray )

( no wattage display, or it is but my corsair crystal 570x psu cover hides it thinking of modifying the case though )

 

Or

 

Rm850x v2 ( i like icue cause i got corsair commander pro, 4x ll120 fans, 2x ll140 on top, corsair m65 mouse, k95 platinum keyboard. So uknow all in one.. in other words wattage will be displayed in icue since im going to sli )

Also any recommendations ( top quality ) for my "Corsair Premium individually sleeved pro kit (Type 4 Generation 4)" would be insanely appreciated !!!)

Here are my specs.

 

Case: corsair crystal 570x

Mobo: asus maximus x hero

Cpu: i9 9900k

Gpu: evga gtx 1080 ti ftw3 ( second one here any moment )

Psu: corsair hx750i

Storage: samsung 970 pro, and 970 plus

 

Thanks !!!!! :)

Who tf told you that? The Asus ROG Thor uses the Seasonic pinout, which is definitely not the same. 

Are you considering replacing your HX750i? Why?

Then you "know" wrong.

 

Asus ROG uses the Seasonic pinout.  Not Corsair's.

I ordered an seperate cable kit from corsair wich does not dit the " Corsair Premium individually sleeved pro kit (Type 4 Generation 4) " kit. Look at their website. As i said the 24 pin thingy wich u usually connect below on the right side on the mobo fits, but the cable on the other side wich is supposed to go to the psu ( 24 atx something ) it doed not fit cause the " Corsair Premium individually sleeved pro kit (Type 4 Generation 4) ) got 2 rxtra pin that does not fit on the back side on the psu i cannot explain it more simple :( the asus rog thor is compatible with this cable from corsiar it has 2 xtra pins for thar connection, hx750i does not..... aslo the corsair ax series support it. " its called " corsair generarion 4 cables "

I don't know what you're going on about... 

 

Corsair does not make cables for Seasonic PSUs.

 

Type 3, Type 4, etc. are made for Corsair PSUs.  Not EVGA, not Asus, not Seasonic.....

 

Yeah.. they might physically fit.  But they're not the same pinout.

 

I linked you to the @CableMod website to show you that even CableMod lists TWO DIFFERENT SET OF CABLES for both Corsair and Asus.  The Asus one using Seasonic cables.... NOT CORSAIR.

 

I can't link you to Corsair's site showing that Corsair and Seasonic/EVGA are two different sets of cables because CORSAIR DOESN'T MAKE CABLESFOR SEASONIC PSUs.

 

You can't buy cables made for one PSU and expect them to work with another.   

 

Keep it up and you're going to fry your components.

This thread is actually more confusing than it looks, I get it that OP confused cable compatibility between Corsair and ASUS (Seasonic Rebrand) but what exactly he wants? new cables? if so like Cablemod is probably the way to do, I don't understand why drag different PSU manufactures into the table.

 

OP Has money to waste on deadSLI in 2019 and overpriced garbage ASUS Maximus Hero board, adding the correct CableMod cables shouldn't be that difficult.

AX Titanium uses Type 4.  Not Seasonic pinout. 

 

Old AX Platinum used Type 4, but Seasonic 24-pin.

 

Asus uses all Seasonic pinout.

He had a Corsair PSU before.  Now he has an Asus and wants to use the cables he bought for his Corsair. 

 

I have an Asus ROG PSU here, and the cables physically fit.  But the pinout is different. 

 

Then he says something about the OLED on the Asus not working, but I'm guessing that's because he's using the wrong cables and has already fried his new PSU.

The RMx does not have Corsair link functionality to work with icue software.

You would need the RMi, HXi, or AXi.

The HX750i uses Corsair Type 3 cables, which you could have found out with 10 seconds of research. 

Just because a cable physically fits doesn't mean it's electrically compatible. Same way you can't shove a lightbulb into the hole of a donut and expect it to light up. 

Did you use the HX750i cables in your new ROG Thor? Or did you use the HX750i cables with your HX750i, and you just have boot issues?

@w33dhit definitely a lot of confusion going on here.

 

The HXi PSU you have would be Type 3 compatibility, the RMx would be Type 4 compatibility. The ASUS Thor units are Seasonic rebrands though, so recent Seasonic cables would work for those as Seasonic has standardized their pinouts. As @jonnyGURU mentioned though, Corsair of course does not sell those.

 

We have a breakdown of compatibility between all those PSUs if you're curious:

https://store.cablemod.com/compatibility/

Our AXi, HXi, RM series would be Type 3, and our RMi, RMx series would be Type 4 for additional help.

Ok.  Still only as clear as mud, but I think we get it.

 

So, as been said:

 

#1:  HX750i uses type 3 cables.   

#2:  Those are Type 4 cables.  That means all of the cables are the same as Type 3, EXCEPT for the 24-pin.  You would need a different 24-pin to work with your HX750i.

#3:  The Asus ROG Thor is NOT made by Corsair.  Therefore, those cables will NOT work with that PSU.

 

Bonus question:

 

See, you don't type complete thoughts when you talk to us, so that's why we get confused....  

 

If the "new build" is the one with the Asus ROG and you just plugged in the Type 3 cables that came with your HX750i into it, you're only going to get "tv... zzzzz".  You're lucky if you didn't fry something in the process.

Alright sorry for my bad english and here is my last attempt to ask again.

 

Updated.

 

I have ordered asus rog thor 850. Its coming in a few days.

I currently own these cables  " Corsair Premium individually sleeved pro kit ( Type 4 Generation 4 ) "  

Are these corsair cables compatible with asus rog thor 850 ?

I will find out in some days but i want to be sure that using corsair cables wont damage for example my gpu, and other components wich are connected from rog thor with the corsair cables.

 

Alternatively anyone got some sick case mod cables sites to recommend ? Or other snacks ? Would be bomb !

No.
You will need to use the cables that come with the Asus ROG Thor. Using other cables may damage your PSU or other components in your system.

Check cablemod website. They stock cables compatible with the Asus ROG Thor. Also @CableMod should be able to help if you have any questions regarding their cables or compatibility.

No!!!! just use the ones that come with the PSU. Don't know why you are so hell bent on using those cables with all the different PSUs you have. If you ordered the Asus ROG Thor just use the cables it comes with. The corsair cables will NOT work with it.

Let him fry his shit. 

 

He's been told twenty times that Corsair cables don't work with Asus or Seasonic power supplies.  Stop wasting your time on him.

Even his HXi could use his new cables.  He can either buy just a new 24-pin cable, or do what I did:
