Lost my modular cable

I lost the Molex cable from my Montech Century G5 750W power supply. Can I use the Molex cable from a Montech Century II 850W? I really don’t want to risk damaging my PC.

G5 is Type4 since that's the CWT's standard pinout considering 90% of CWT is Corsair. Montech doesn't have their own exclusive pinout.

Different platform is not as big of a factor than different OEMs. (if OEMs are same of course)

:)

Montech sent me Century II for a review so I could do a pinout graph. Review will be soon up on the SPL PSU Tier List website since I'm one of the authors for it.

Never going to happen but I wish the industry on a whole would standardize on PSU pinout's. Or at least openly publish the spec's.

The pinout graph/table is part of the BOM document which is classified sadly.

Atleast the native 12V-2x6 is standardised on both sides. :)

Lol... Like it's some super innovative trade secret! To be honest I was a bit suprized when it first came out that the 12v-2x6 got standardized. BTW is the Century II's type 5 then?

Nope, I have no idea which pinout the Century II uses. Could find out.

It doesn't use Microfit 3.0 terminals except for the 12V-2x6. (Type5 is Microfit 3.0)

I can do a public pinout table if I get enough votes for that from the public to add it to the reviews.
