Is it possible to use Corsair individually sleeved cables on EVGA PSU:s ?

    I don't think so. The pin layout is different I believe.

    But the cables must be at the same places on every psu right?
    So if it fits it sits or am i wrong? :O

    I'm pretty sure EVGA makes their own individually sleeved psu cables that you can buy. I'd get those so you don't have to guess if it will work or not.

    You'd be surprised how different some of the pin-outs can be.  There is no standard, so while most are the same not all are.  I have seen plenty of posts from people that have used cables between different power supplies and fried some components.  Best to avoid the situation altogether and use the proper cables.  As tucker147 states, EVGA has some individually sleeved cables for not for all models so depending on which you have, they might not have any.
     
    Otherwise there are places online that you can order cables, but they can be fairly expensive as they are hand-built.  This guys does great work and are reasonably priced if you want to go custom route.

    ookok, thanks for the info guys!
    I'd hoped that I could change PSU without redoing the whole rig, but it seems like i have to anyways xD

    Intel writes the industry-standard Power Supply Design Guide specifications (see References) for the wiring on the component-end connectors..There is no such industry-standard specification for the wiring on the PSU-end of modular connectors..People have burned up things by switching modular cables between PSU manufacturers..People have burned up things even by switching modular cables between PSU models from the same manufacturer..Best thing to do if unsure is to hotwire the PSU (see PSU Paper Clip Test) before you connect it and check all component-end voltages/grounds against an industry-standard pinout chart like this one or many others you can find by searching.

    I think I'll just pick up some EVGA sleeve to my new psu ;)
