    This PSU has all these PCIe cables listed, does that mean that it will not work for a P4/AGP system?

    I am using a 9800XT. Thanks

    Also is coolmaster a sketchy company? I have heard that their stuff is bad... is this true?

    THANKS!

    Hi, yes that PSU will work with AGP. PCIe cables are just for newer setups PCI-Express graphics cards. It's also modular which is a good thing, keep it lookin tidier and better air flow.It's also 85% efficent which is pretty good. Coolmaster are quite a well known company and do manufacture quality components.

    Before I buy this PSU i was wondering will the PSU cabling be changing any time soon? ie a new motherboard cable or PCIe3 cable?

    I know you dont know this for sure but maybe there is some known change?

    Only main change was from 20 pin atx to 24 pin atx and a few 8 pin power connectors. If a new type of power connector did come out you could always get an adapter for it, e.g. molex to sata, molex to 6 pin, molex to 8 pin, molex to fan etc.

    You will probably get connectors you need already on the power supply, if you need a connector it doesn't have you can easily buy a $2 adapter cable.
