Hello all, I have some things I need to ask the community about. I own a 1600 T2 and I am not happy with the cables. I do like the "aftermarket" set that evga makes, however they don't offer them in the color I would like. I have found wires with female connectors on both ends that I could just remove the existing wires from the stock connectors and replace with something like this
(Mods delete link if it's not allowed)
Now the dilemma, I have seen that some people think there are capacitors in the stock and aftermarket evga cabling...I have seen that some people think there are resistors in said cabling...meaning that I could not use what I linked above. I had a friend call evga tech support...that tech said there capacitors hidden in there. So, I called evga tech support and was told they are ALL just straight wires with nothing "hidden" in them. Now, I've done electronics for over 20 years and the only reason I can see putting caps on the wires is to eliminate a ripple in the DC which these high-end psu's should NOT have a problem with.
So what is the answer...straight though wires or is there stuff hidden in there that will prevent from re-pinning with different cable?
And yes I do know that if I did what I linked above, it would void my psu warranty...but why?
This is a sticking point in my build now.
Thanks for all your help.
