What does it look like at the other end?? Where the ATX cable comes out of the PSU.........
My first sleeving job :)
http://www.pohrani.com/t/1g/rk/Q4S8EHT/p9050129.jpg
In the middle of some ATX cables there is heatshrink, do you guys remove it reapply your own or what?
So with all you sleeving pros around on this thread, I have a quick question. The ONLY issue I seem to be having is once I have everything sleeved and the heatshrink shrunk, it won't fit back into the plug hole. I have mdpc sleeving and the 4:1 heatshrink. I have the sleeve itself stopping short of the hole as it should, and just the heatshrink wrapped around the wire just a few millimeters short of the metal connector being inserted. Just doesn't seem like the wire + heatshrink's diameter is small enough. I've tried a few times to make sure the heatshrink was as tight as it will go, and it is. Has anyone else experienced this with the MDPC products? It doesn't seem that complicated, but am I missing something?
Martin: Good name! ;) If you can't get the pin + heatshrink to fit info the connector, heat it up a bit and it should insert smoothly. :)
carcas: Do you mean sleeve and heatshrink that comes standard on most PSUs? I just cut it off. :)
Best,
Martin :)
Just one word to describe your sleeving Crysis Gam3r.........perfect, really is ;)
Anyone have any yellow sleeves?
I'm thinking of getting 20m Yellow and 10m Black Sleeves for my Seasonic X560 or Seasonic X650:D
Thanks zigzag :)
nnyymm: Yellow and black is a beautiful combination, especially in a matching build. :)

God I hate this thread ......
Its like a fish watching birds and daydreaming, I have a 175 euro cart at MDPC-X I'm itching to buy.
Only problem Oc'ing last build I blew my MB. who knew you couldn't push multiple MB buttons (by accident) at the same time.
During the strip down I blew out my hands the finally said enough is enough and developed full blow carpal tunnel I pretty much lost most of my very fine motor control.
I so want my new build MDPC-x but I Know i can't do it.
*Sigh*
Huh maybe Crys1s_Gam3r will take an insane commission ?
Anyone know wheres a good place to order up spools of wire.connectors and sleeving/heatshrink in the US??? Itching to do my Ultra X4 1600WATT P/S but dont want to mess with the cheap wires on it and i also dont want to viod the lifetime warrenty either.. So all new wires ground up is how i wana go. Better that way as i can extend the length of them for my new MM case.
So far i've found this site for both cheap spool wire and heatshrink.. No idea if this wire would be equall or safe to use though.. http://www.allelectronics.com/make-a...Up-Wire/1.html. I would need 18 and 20 gauge correct?
Well.. I snapped I just dropped 200 euro With Nils.
I did hit Crysis up on his site but as I was talking it over today with the wife. She asked me a real simple question. Are you sure you want it that way ?
She has a way of putting stuff in perspective for me. I'm not exactly sure of layout and lengths till case get built and it hooked up if i get somebody else to do it I can't make Minor Finishing Touches.
Sooooo I'm hauling out the good painkillers and Going try this myself. if i get this done I have a feeling It'll be more enjoyable /achievement.
If Not Crys1s_Gam3r getting a Big box of supplies and a check.

Plus Shipping which was not bad , I had some screws in there as well but they doubled the shipping so I figured I didn't need Snap caps and Screws. Though depend on whats exposed at the end of my build I may order some.
thats a lot of stuff :)
Colors other then black and white from MDPC-X?? I've seen posts in this thread of people getting other colors but i dont see them on his site. Is that a custom order deal or something?
Thanks James :)
MagisD: Completely understandable, best of luck working through the carpal tunnel :)
