ADVANCED HYBRID CABLE MANAGEMENT
The CP-850 uses Advanced Hybrid Cable Management. Cables that are important or mandatory are permanently connected to the PSU for the highest quality power delivery. There are modular jacks on the back of the PSU to add additional cables as needed. Using only the cables you need will reduce clutter and improve airflow inside your case. For the list of connected and optional cables, see Table 2.
THE MODULAR CABLE JACKS
There are two black jacks and two red jacks on the back of your CP-850 PSU. These jacks are for the optional cables that come with your power supply. The black connectors are used for Molex or SATA cables. Because of the high power requirements of modern graphics cards, the red ones are set up to handle their needs. If you are not using the red connectors for PCI-Express connectors, then you can use them for additional Molex or SATA cables as needed.
