I found a set of cables online for my Corsair AX850 power supply. I added another GPU last night and found that I needed one more 6-pin PCIe connector; my 1080 only needs one (and I only have two right now, enough for most people) whereas the old 670 requires two . No problem - I found a complete set on FleaBay.
Yeah, no thanks. That might be worth it if I needed all of the cables, but I think I can find just what I need a little cheaper. And I don’t have a problem not using every port on my power supply and using adapters to get the connections I need - it’s a working computer, not a showpiece full of RGB stuff. I’m happiest when I can neither hear nor see my computer.

I should have a spare one from my SF600 Gold , not like I can fit anything inside my tiny case. Not sure if the connector is standardized though.

I appreciate the offer, but it seems that there are no standards when it comes to modular power supply connections. I have a pile of various ones I’ve found over the years, but short of taking the time to figure out the voltage at each pin and rewiring as needed I’m not going to bother with those. I did find the cable I needed for $11.95 with shipping and jumped on that so I'll be OK.
