Abstract

A computer system with integrated cable is disclosed. The computer system includes a circuit board module, at least one electronic device and an integrated cable. The circuit board module includes a first connector, and the integrated cable is electrically connecting with the circuit board module and the electronic device. The integrated cable includes a second connector electrically connected to the first connector and a body electrically connected to the electronic device. The body integrates at least one power cable and at least one signal cable electrically connected to the second connector, and has a tearing structure formed between the power cable and the signal cable to allow an easy separation of the power cable and the signal cable. With such, meanwhile, entwining of unused power cables or signal cables is effectively avoided.
