Modular Power Supply cable alternative

[Yosuru]

Hello, I have an old Thermaltake Toughpower 1200W Cable Management semi-modular power supply but I lost some of the cable that came with it.

 

 

 

 

 

I still have one of the PCI-E 8pin connectors and I was wondering if I can use this modular power supply cable I found.

 

It has the same pinout or wire layout to the standard 8 pin PCI-E but it is keyed differently.

The one I found however has the same keys on both the PCI-E male end and PSU male end, thus its keys are also different to the PSU female end.

 

I was thinking about jamming in the PSU male end into the PSU female end. And since they have the same pinout, it should work right? Although it is quite painful.

I would try to get a thermaltake psu cables

Unfortunately, it is quite difficult to come by these days. But I guess I will try a little harder in looking for such before going for this gruesome idea.

Time to lose the rest of the PSU too, this thing is ancient.

But when it comes to it, will it work?
