12VHPWR psu side, or whatever 12VHPWR called these days.

Does anyone know whether the pinout for it on the PSU side the same on all PSU ??

My friend thinking to buy a 12VHPWR to 90 degree 12VHPWR cable, but he couldn't find premade one for corsair with that configuration on cablemod global site.
For idk what reason each of them (the one titled for corsair) only has option to terminate one of the end with PCIe 8pins.
The one titled for ASUS/Phanteks/Seasonic though has option where both ends terminates with 12VHPWR.

If the pinout for 12VHP on PSU side the same on all PSU then he can just buy one titled for ASUS/Phanteks/Seasonic PSU.

afaik both sides are the same connector, on the power supplies that dont split it out into 8-pin plugs.

and for the ones that split it out into 8-pin plugs, it's whatever their non-standard for the 8-pin plugs is.

as for the name, i'm pretty sure it's "12 pin high failure rate" these days.

Yeah, it's an ATX3.1 PSU, it has native 12VHPWR header on it.

Maybe some people have more info or confirmation ?
@seon123 ??
Sorry for tagging, just that I often see you comment something on PSU related threads.

12V 2x6 is only a component side connector, so any PSU side implementation is some non-standardised stuff, and each brand is free to implement it however they want, regardless of how the physical connector looks. A 12+4 pin Micro-Fit/Micro Power connector on the PSU side is not any more or less a "proper" or standardised 12V 2x6 PSU side connector than soldered wires, 2x 8 pin Mini-Fit, etc.

But I don't see why different brands would do it differently from each other, as that would just lead to some wires crossing each other (unless they want to make the PSU/component side reversible, without connecting all 4 of the +4 pins for some reason).
