Well my reason for showing that is cuz there's 5 different guages used on that pinout. Just helps people get a better idea. Especially since there's a triple 22AWG crimp, and a bunch of dbl crimps. The HCP-1300 definitely isn't a recommended PSU if you're a form > function person. But it's incredible as far as quality, that's why i went with it. Just figured adding the number of wires and the sizes might help people like me. I didn't create that part for the 16's and 18's on there. It's for the 20's, 22's, and 24's. Does that make sense?

I emailed you the pdf, jpg, and xlsx cuz i didn't know which was easier to sharpen up

Also, if you could tell me what you did to make it sharper, it'll help me with PSU pinout I'm gonna do for it

Thanx Big Elf for fixing this for me
Here's the pinout again with a better image

 
Big Elf, I just finished making the template for my Rear PSU Pinout. Would you mind sharpening it up for me after I fill it in? Either later tonight or tomorrow...
 
Thanx. I'll just email it to you when I'm done with it and PM you after I email it. Just hit me back whenever you get a chance to do it =)
 
I'm in the process of preparing the pin-outs for the 24 pin for all current modular SeaSonic PSUs. When I've done that I'll try and do the rest of the pin-outs for each PSU. If anyone is desperate for a particular one let me know and I'll do it as a priority.

Edit: I was going to do separate pin-out for all the other connectors on the SeaSonic PSUs. However getting hold of images of the layouts on the back of each to match the documented pin-outs I have will take forever so instead I've done the following which applies to:

Fanless FL1 - X-400, X-460
Platinum Series, Fanless FL2 - P-400, P-460, P-520
X-Series KM1 - X-650, X-750
X-Series KM2 - X-560, X-660, X-760, X-850
X-Series KM3 - X-650, X-750, X-850
X-Series XM - X-1050, X-1250
Platinum Series XP1 - P-860, P-1000, P-1200
Platinum Series XP2 - P-660, P-760, P-860

These are all likely to apply to future releases of SeaSonic PSUs until further notice and can easily be verified by inspecting the supplied cables in the case of those supplied with coloured cables or checking with a multi-meter for the all black cables supplied with some of the later revisions.

You should always double check these cables before use as incorrect pin-outs will cause component destruction. As I mention Ad nauseum I recommend the Thermaltake Dr Power II which will check every cable on an ATX PSU.

SeaSonic uses a standard method of pin-outs for all their current PSUs for the following modular connectors used at the PSU socket:

6 Pin Auxiliary Connector - used for 4 Pin Molex/Auxiliary Connectors and SATA Power Connectors
In the case of the 4 Pin Molex/Auxiliary Connector pin-out no. 4 (3.3V) is not used.

8 Pin Connector - Used for CPU/EPS Connectors and PCI-E Connectors. Uses 12V and Ground Connectors only.

12 Pin Connectors - Used mainly for PCI-E Connectors but also for additional 8 Pin CPU/EPS Cables (only 4 x 12V and 4 x Ground pin-outs are populated). Uses 12V and Ground Connectors only. Where there are insufficient Ground connections e.g. for 2 x 8 Pin PCI-E Connectors it is necessary to splice Ground cables together to make up enough wires to connect to the 8 Pin PCI-E Connector.

Because the connectors at the component end i.e. EPS/CPU/PCI-E/Molex/Auxiliary/SATA are all standard it should be easy to refer to the standard pin-outs for each of these connectors to correctly wire them up.

 
SeaSonic Fanless FL1 - X-400, X-460

As always with my pin-outs you're looking at the connector from the rear (where the wire is inserted). Where 2 is shown in brackets after the wire colour on the 24 Pin Connector it denotes dual wires.

Always double check the pin-outs for your own PSU and I recommend investing in a PSU Tester, specifically the Thermaltake Dr Power II as it will test ALL the cables on an ATX PSU.

Note: These PSUs have 2 alternative pin-outs. The one shown is for the original release. However a further revision was made without changing the revision number.

The dual Ground wires shown on Pin 24 on the 24 Pin Connector are optional. If you redo Pin 24 as a single Ground wire then leave Pin 7 on the 18 Pin Connector unused and move Pin 3 from the 24 Pin connector to Pin 6 on the 18 Pin Connector to match the latest revision. It's beneficial to leave Pin 24 on the 24 Pin Connector as a single wire to avoid splitting dual wires between the 18 pin and the 10 pin connector. If you find this confusing let me know and I'll do an additional image.

Dunno if it's needed as much, but i posted a rear PSU pinout like 4 posts under the 24 Pin for the HCP-1300.
 
guys, since Corsair sells the same sleeved cable packs for AX and AXi series PSU (except 24 pin), does that mean my AX860 PSU use the same pinout as AX760i/860i/1200i in the first page for the pcie, cpu, and peripheral cables?
