    Good luck with finishing that rig bro! I know how tuff it is with the carpo tunnel.. Been there many years ago with having that big time in both hands! Was like being paralized. Could'nt do crap for many many months. Depression and everything set in just cause of that. No fun and i would'nt wish that on my enemies!

    Had it again in one hand for the past few months while building my rig.. I believe its brought on from alot of stess. Took months before i could feel my last 3 fingers on the right hand which finally i can.

    Heres my build which i finished somewhat a month or 2 ago. Still have yet to find time to finish the lighting.. have the new lights just gota install them. heh.

    Ok damn I think you Stole My overkill title , 6 pumps quad sli ... nice....

    So i dropped about 500-600 with nils ... I probably tossed out and or destroyed 60% of it messing up ... I manged to sleeve my soldered fan cables but not that well but to much work to redo .

    made customer gpu power cables and screwed those up .

    So I finally gave up and did quick and dirty Sata sleeve on them.







    Once I get the 2 eps 8 pin and MB 24 pin done gona route and clean them up.

    Then its time in install a Floating panel on the bottom to hide all the cable runs I'm not happy with.


    I figure for my birthday or something i'll get the wife to let me order a bunch of cables from martin at http://psychosleeve.com/

    Something I forgot to add you could get the sata heatshrink to seal perfectly on the ends of the gpu plugs.

    But that requires you to small heatshrink each cable end like you were doing single sleeve, before you put on the sata to increase bulk and give the sata sleeve a tacky surface to stick to.

    Too bad I ran out of small heatshrink.

    One of my mistakes but perfect example of what i'm talking about.

    Thanks!

    Hey, can always do what i've done and that just buy extensions that already come modded with single cable sleeved.. http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...c157454c1be115.

    Even microcenter carries them if there local to you..

    Though i had to re-sleeve the ones i bought cause they didnt have the right color i needed locally and was in a hurry.

    Figured it was alot easier to buy extensions and single cable sleeve them then doing the whole P/S which i did'nt want to void warrenty and its a good thing cause i already had to RMA that power supply.

    Honestly sleeving them all together is alot cleaner then how i did it with a wall and a half of cables in the way of the graphics cards.

    Doing the above would be perfect for someone with carpo tunnel!

    Ya, but I wanted to try. All my cables are the same as your exts due to being a completely modular ps an ax 1200.

    If I buy extensions it'll be off martin he's a master. And with my setup I can just use 18 inch ext as my main cables PS is centrally located du to custom cut panels. Just have to Change one end to fit the Corsair one for my psu.

    I'm thinking of removing all the sleeveing from most of my system, I have the Atx PS cable bare now and honestly it looks better in my system then the sleeve.

    examples




    Just need a good clip /tidy solution

    Hmm, imho it's not 'better', but 'thinner' which seems better when without any cable managment. Just as you mentioned yourself, with tidying up cables (eg. using P-clips(#1)/#2) imho single wire sleeved will look better then current wiring spaghetti.

    Single sleeveing is not going to happen period. every time i try i mess up my hands for a week.

    I was looking at the texture, look against the rest of my case. The fabric look of the sleeveing is working for cables ( allready single sleeved) running the fans but for the MB pci-e and Eatx and 24-pin its going bare black. the sata sleeve solution i have on there now not working and single sleeve doen't look that good either in midair.
