Have a question sirs-

I have been using a EVGA 650 Nova which is fully modular. I believe it has issues and I like having backups, so I ordered a Seasonic 660s Plat. It is Also fully Modular.

My question is this, Do i need to swap the cables for the new PSU? The EVGA are already ran and tidy and such.

I assume cable is cable and it doesn't matter, but want to make sure.

Thanks in advance!

You can't use the EVGA cables on the Seasonic...Sorry.

Different vendors usually have different pinouts if not different connectors altogether so cable kits are very likely not interchangeable... except maybe between re-branded versions of the same OEM PSU design. In that case, you MIGHT be able to reuse wiring but you need to double-check that they are wired exactly the same assuming PSU-side connections fit.

The Nova and SEASONIC aren't interchangeable.
