Using CPU sleeve kit instead of Pre Installed CPU Cable - Good or Bad?

[cascoh]

My PSU is a Corsair HX750w and it comes with 2 integrated cables, the CPU and the 24 Pin. I recently bought the white sleeve kit from corsair and was wondering if its okay to run my 8-Pin power cable from the PSU rather then the integrated one. Temps seem fine but maybe it could degrade my PC's performance due to power? A final answer would be appreciated thanks.

Link your PSU is it version 1 or 2.

Different pins. The 8pin EPS (cpu) on the psu has a slightly different connector to the modular pcie, they physically should not be interchangeable. If you received an 8pin EPS (cpu) white sleeved, then it'll work just fine, all those 12v connectors go back to the same rails.

That model Corsair only has one 8 pin CPU power connection and it's the integrated one.

You can't use the PCIE cables for CPU power.
