For context I have a CX550M but only with the 24 pin and 8 pin which come attached. I can’t seem to find cables from the CX550M on eBay but I can find cables for the CX850M and CX750M. Will the cables be compatible for the CX550m? On reddit I was told I should look at a pin out and I think I found what I was meant to be looking for and according to it a lot of the Corsair PSUs have compatible cables or am I missing something?

are you upgrading your original cables or replacing broken ones

I bought it second hand not was being sold with no cables.

There's no need to google for pinouts or forums, when Corsair themselves tells you what cables are compatible:

CX550M uses Corsair Type 3 SATA/Peripheral cables, and Type 3 or Type 4 PCIe cables.
