I have had this PSU for a few years and need to add a video card to the system it is in. However I cannot find the 'official' power cables for the modular power supply. I have a bunch of Seasonic cables but am not sure if the pinout is industry standard or if everyone's cables are proprietary. Does anyone know if I can use the Seasonic cables or do I have to figure out where my EVGA cables are?

    I forgot that I got an EVGA PSU with a NewEgg bundle that's got modular cables. This PSU is the 700BQ. Are the cables from that PSU compatible with the older 850?
     
    Alternatively is there a way to buy new cables? I can't find these cables to save my life! LOL
     
    Final edit:
    I answered the question on buying them:

     
    However it would be nice to know if the cables from the 700BQ will work.

    You can get cables by contacting evga tech support or getting custom cables from cablemod.com

    Thanks... looks like my link didn't post. I found Cablemod (dot) com and it looks like if the 700BQ doesn't work then I'll just buy some.
