bentleya, photo with fan connectors is brilliant - good for wallpaper ;)
but I think you should tweak white balance on your camera a little when shooting blue sleeving because it looks too light and colorless IMO

anyway good shots :)

You guys in this thread never cease to amaze me! Brilliant photography and cable sleeving skills!

My first Sleeving with MDCP-X kit. Those Corsair PSU are serious pain to do... But with all the help from this topic, I got it finished :)

Could someone give me a rundown of the sizes of sleeving and heatshrink (3:1) for the following cables:
SATA Data
SATA Power Individual Sleeving
PSU Individual Sleeving
Fan Cables

This might be good information for the OP, because as of right now, it only says 1/8 sleeving for individual PSU sleeving and fan cables. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks in advance!

SATA data cable (if you don't use MDPC-X) 3/8th inch works well, I can't remember off hand what heatshrink size I use (might be half inch)- but I'd reccomend grabbing glue lined
SATA Power individual (I assume you mean from the PSU) would be 1/8th inch as well
same with fans (although I use 1/4th inch, I like the black w/ red tracer, and its only in 1/4th inch)

I used the SATA sleeving for the Power cables as well, it fit well and looked fine IMO.

I think accents of green with the black would look nice, goes with the card you have.:)

Get well soon Nils

Feel better Nils!

Get better Nils, soon.

Thanks guys. All is good again. The heart-pump-clock was just out of rhythm :D Too much OC for over two years maybe. But the heart is completely healthy and the doctors said that it can happen to anyone at anytime. Back on track. Now I just have one problem: I was wearing a little electrical device for 24 hours until now and it had three grey cables ... and I almost got sick again ... because THEY WERE NOT SLEEVED!!!!!!!!!!!

Glad to hear you're well Nils. Recieved my sleeve in the post this morning :D and i love it! Thanks a million Nils :) Shame my PSU is being RMA'd so i'm going to have to wait a week atleast to sleeve it :(
