Overview

  • A built-in NTC sensor at the GPU-end connector monitors heat and signals the PSU to engage over-temperature protection on supported units.
  • A 90-degree L-type plug reduces strain from tight bends and simplifies cable routing inside cramped cases.
  • Bright green insertion indicators help verify full seating, and ASRock includes optional branded stickers for user guidance.
  • The CB-12V2X6L600W cable is rated to 105°C, supports up to 600W, complies with ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1, and uses 16 AWG wiring.
  • The cable is listed at $39.99 on Newegg with a two-year limited warranty, as industry reports note the wider 16-pin overheating issue remains unresolved.
