A little confused here; every modern PSU has a number of SATA power connectors. What exact hardware are we talking about here? Both cooler and CPU.

No. It doesn't work without power.

Find the connector coming from PSU.

If indeed there is no free sata power connector available, then
you can get it from existing sata power connector (connected to HDD/SSD) with appropriate adapter.

If that is the PSU you have, maybe. Not sure I trust a random company to make a decent cable.

If that isn't the PSU you have, then no, not all PSU cables are made the same.

If this was a pre-built, you should have been supplied with all the modular cables the PSU came with. If not, they owe you a cable set.

That cable is compatible with EVGA 1000 GQ only.
If your PSU model is different, then this cable is not compatible.

Using wrong modular PSU cables will damage/kill devices connected.
the same with a off branded one ? i just got one and yeaaa didn’t even let my computer turn on
