Compatibility & electrical hazards

Use only with PSU models explicitly listed by Corsair for CP-8920284. The PSU-end wiring is proprietary: same-brand or physically fitting modular cables are not necessarily interchangeable. Never connect this cable to a different PSU family, an unlisted model, or a 12V-2x6/12VHPWR socket by visual assumption. Fully seat the GPU connector and keep the cable straight at the plug as directed by the component makers.

Archival & handling notes

Retain its exact CP-8920284 label and packaging; document the PSU model and revision with which it was acquired. Inspect connector seating, discoloration, damaged contacts, insulation, and bend stress. Do not cut, repin, or test an unknown modular harness by applying power.

For collection records, photograph both connector faces and all labels; record manufacturer, complete SKU, revision, provenance, condition, and the source document used for identification. Do not apply power to an unidentified or damaged cable.
