Hi guys! I have a problem with burn out usb-c cable on the psu, its seems to be common problem (living in Europe), I need advice, I found this: HP 2x460W PSU Avalon Nano 3, but then I search for alternative and "eureka" I found cheap server psu brand HP  Model: Workstation xw4400 | DPS-460CB Grade A from a store with 1m warranty.
Guys if i solder usb-c type cable(something better and not so thin the cable usb-c 240W for i.e.) for this psu, will it run at high speed? Any help will be gladly appreciate!



It most probably will not work. USB-C is not only providing power, it uses a protocol in order to negotiate the needed voltage etc. Just soldering will not solve your problem. Look above there is a good reference above.
