Hello everyone, I'm doing some box cleaning and I found a bunch of cables which I'll ask for your help for identification, if you don't mind 🙃
So, as the title says, how do you call this cable?
Thank you!

somewhat related PSA: never use old psu cables with a different model psu. As far as I understand it they aren't standardized as to which wires connect which pins, so you risk destroying components if you mix and match cables and psu
It’s always safer to just leave random mystery cables alone.
However, if you have a multimeter and some patience, they can still be used safely. You just need to know what you’re doing, look up the pinout and measure the voltages before plugging anything into any sensitive components.
Not planning to plug anything :D Just want to get rid of some stuff and I need to somehow label it. Thanks for the info though!
