Do all 8pin PCIE connectors share the same pin diameter(pitch)?
Or does it depend on the wire gauge that you are using!?
Example.
I want to build a custom cable and would like to use 16awg wires instead of the 18awg. Will the 16awg pins fit into into an "18awg" breakout board?
I don't really know if 16awg molex micro-fit jr pins are compatible with 18awg connectors .
To my understanding the interlocking between the female and male plug stays the same but the butts of the pins can be (16awg,18awg etc) to acomodate different wire diameters.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
