100%What should have happened is EVGA should have sent a new, compatible set of cables with the replacement PSU.
Most likely FSP notified them (I did not hear of an OEM switch) as FSP have been around for a while and knows the brand-oem relatiionship. My "guess", EVGA uses a third party for warranty (many brands do) and they never notified the third party. Basically engineering not telling customer service.Assuming EVGA even knew the OEM changed the pinout.
EVGA ran around to so many different OEMs in order to build market share that I don't think their people were properly kept in the loop to changes. In fact I recall talking to an EVGA PSU rep once and asking how their relationship with Seassonic was. He stated they never uesed Seasonic as an OEM, I corrected him that in fact they did (Supernova GS I beleive) and eventually went back to them for different line updates.
Regardless, thermaltake looked as if they were changing from their old ways but this is not a good look for them and it's hard to recommned any of their PSU even if they are well reviewed.
