Hello, 

 

I have a HX1000 watts power supply. but I do not know which one is the right power cable for the hx1000 since stupid me just mixed up all the power cable while I was moving.

 

So does it matter which power cable I use since all of those at least support over 1000 watts?

 

or should I contact Corsair tech support since this could be really dangerous?

 

Here is the link for power cables

Those don't matter too much, as long as it supports at least 10-11A.

 

Remember:  Your 1000W PSU will almost never be outputting that level of wattage during use.  

 

Thank god 🙂  I thought I was gonna damage my component if I do not use a power cable that came with the HX psu.

Either one should be fine as long as the system never spikes above 1000W. If so, I would choose the one with higher watt & amp rating for extra piece of mind. Assuming both cables have the same wire gauge/thickness, who knows if the higher power rating is legit unless you pull the UL report/cert on the cable, but no need for that unless you had power draw on the edge of a cord's power rating.
