YEPLOOK 8Pin to 6+2Pin PCIe GPU Power Cable for Corsair CS-M Gold 600mm

SKU CH-MKQ1-55S1M

Connects a Corsair CS-M Gold modular PSU to graphics cards with 6-pin or 8-pin PCIe sockets using flat 18 AWG tinned copper wire

  • Cable length1.96 ft (0.6m)
  • Product colorBlack
  • Tinned copper wire adds protection and extends cable life
  • Flat design allows tight bends for neat cable routing
  • 6+2 pin connector fits 8 pin, 6 pin or dual GPU sockets
  • Rated for up to 800 W supporting current high-end graphics cards
  • 600 mm length suits Corsair CS-M Gold modular power supplies

Compatibility — Corsair CS-M Gold Type 3

This cable connects an 8-pin PSU port to a PCIe 6+2-pin graphics card socket. It is built for Corsair CS850M, CS750M, CS650M, CS550M and CS450M Gold modular power supplies only. The pin layout includes one empty position on the PSU side; this is the standard Type 3 arrangement and not a defect. Using it with other brands or models can cause damage.

Installers who need a direct replacement

Builders replacing a lost or damaged original cable for the listed Corsair units will find the correct pin-out and 600 mm length. The flat, tinned-copper construction eases routing in tight cases. Anyone with a non-Corsair PSU, a different Corsair series or a graphics card that requires a 12VHPWR connector should look elsewhere — this cable does not fit those needs.

Deciding specification — PSU 8-pin to PCIe 6+2-pin

The single detail that determines fit is the connector pair: an 8-pin header keyed for Corsair Type 3 modular sockets on one end, and a 6+2-pin PCIe plug on the other. Thirty-four 18 AWG inner wires are rated for 300 V and up to 80 °C. If your power supply does not use the Corsair CS-M Gold Type 3 pin-out, this cable will not work.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 8-pin PSU connector correctly and avoid the empty-pin mistake?

Align the 8-pin plug with the Corsair Type-3 header so the empty pin position matches the keying; the missing pin is normal and not a defect.

When should I replace this cable and what wear signs matter?

Replace if the flat 18AWG tinned-copper conductors show cracked insulation, melted pins or corrosion after repeated bending near the 600 mm length.

What power limit appears first during sustained loads on a high-end GPU?

The cable is rated for 800 W maximum; sustained draws above that will hit the 300 V / 80 °C thermal ceiling before the GPU does.
