No not all power supplies are keyed the same. Be easiest as well as cheaper to just buy some extensions honestly. Plus it looks like that psu isn't fully modular so you would need to get an extension for the 20+4 pin anyways :D

Just a quick one, are Modular power supply cables all keyed the same or is it model specific?

Fancy buying some nice pre-sleeved ones but want to make sure they fit.

I have checked with my PSU makers (Thermaltake) site and can only see extensions.

Cheers.

AFAIK Corsair and EVGA have their own cables for modular PSUs, there may be others, but I don't know about them... Other solution is the extensions, but that brings up the hassle of more cables to manage. Last solution is to sleeve them yourself :P

Good shout, I totally forgot it's only a hybrid,

Extensions it is then,

Once I get the corsair 240 air that is.
