OP OP blue-lynx In Runtime Messages 112 Location GTA - Greater Toronto Area Jul 23, 2009 #64 I am getting a used Corsair VX450W powersupply for about $30 but the dude says not all the power connectors work properly. Can I buy power connectors separately ? Is this a good power supply?

OP OP blue-lynx In Runtime Messages 112 Location GTA - Greater Toronto Area Jul 23, 2009 #66 are seperate power cables/connectors available for power supplies?
hikaricloud Golden Master Messages 6,220 Location USA Jul 23, 2009 #67 Not really, there's converters, like molex to SATA or PCI-E, but other than that, I don't think so.
james.wired Equator Gringo Messages 2,318 Location Panama Jul 23, 2009 #68 A used one for $30 with "some of the power cables don't work" doesn't sound too safe! Spend the extra bucks to get something you know works.

james.wired Equator Gringo Messages 2,318 Location Panama Jul 23, 2009 #70 It's all gravy sauce. The vx450 is a fine PSU though. You might want to get something with more power for future upgrades though.
