I just got an OCz fatal1ty 750w psu without the modular cables, and I'm wondering which cables I should buy and where to find good options. My system setup looks like this:

MOBO: Asrock fatal1ty b250 gaming k4
CPU: I7 7700k
GPU: nvidia geforce gtx 1080 Founders Edition
RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR4 2400mhz 64gb (4×16fb)
PSU: OCz fatal1ty 750w
I don’t have a CPU cooler yet, but I’ll probably get a liquid cooler eventually.

Thanks in advance for any advice or support—I really appreciate it.
Merry Christmas to all!

I usually reach out to the manufacturer directly to prevent any misunderstandings about the correct cables. They might be able to supply the cables or guide you to the right resources.

It's more than a decade old and no longer trustworthy. Not worth searching for cables for this dinosaur.

Modular power cables lack standardization, meaning you need to find one with the correct pinout—unless it's a widely used PSU, which is usually from the manufacturer.
It’s unclear if the effort and expense are justified. With an old 11 or 12-year PSU, it makes more sense to retire it now rather than use it for testing or emergencies.
I hope you received this PSU for free.

It was 40 dollars and he Okie Doked me, telling me there were all the cables I needed. I should have asked before buying.

Oof, it wasn't worth the shipping expense even with the cables included. Please return the PSU if possible. If not, recycle it or think it's a valuable lesson.

I'm still working through this but it's definitely a valuable lesson. What advice would you give for a more reliable PSU? Which cables are required for the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition? Thank you for your assistance and time.

Looking for anything 650W or higher on Tier A or Tier B in the Power Supplies subforum.
