As long as it's the same model using the same connectors for modular cables it should be fine.

It depends on if they have the same pinouts (not just the actual connectors on both ends) on both of the PSUs. If they are different, you could kill anything that is connected to whatever cable(s) are different. If they are EXACTLY the same PSU you should be fine as long as the PSU hasn't gone through separate revisions. If they are made by the same OEM, you MIGHT be fine, but you really need to check the pinouts to make sure they are supplying the correct thing through each of the pins before connecting it to any component.

 

My question would be, if you bought it, why didn't you get the cables? Is it secondhand? If its new, then tell the store that sold it to you and they should sort it for you. If it's used and said it came with the cables, then ask the person who sold it to you, also, in that case, don't buy 2nd hand PSUs again.
