Cable Sleeving Guide

Aa work of art, as usual.

**shawnoen** · 09-03-2010, 04:06 AM

The trick (and challenge) is to make both ends of a single cable to look like that. Was able to do it on my HX850 about a year ago and about to start again on a AX1200. Sleeving one end perfectly and then covering the other with a single large piece to cover up inconsistencies is the easy way out.

Being a perfectionist and sleeving sucks....

question about the AX line, at least from the pictures it looks like corsair picked a really high quality sleeve. Why did you resleeve yours (just wondering, because I thinking about just buying one of those instead of buying an hx psu and mdcp sleeving)?

Yes, thats how it should always be done!

And, there is no better sleeve in the world than what MDPC-X sells!!!!!!

**Xien16** · 09-03-2010, 06:36 AM

I have nothing to add

Ah - I have: And, there is no cheaper sleeve in the world that what MDPC-X sells!!!!!!

What size sleeve do I need to sleeve ALL of the front panel wires into one sleeve? I'm talking about the Speaker, power and reset switches, and the power and hd activity leds.

Thanks NFC

Shawn: Yep

As you can see above, Crys1s_Gam3r has kindly taken on the task of sleeving some of the cables from my SeaSonic X650 PSU.

Pictured above is the 24pin MoBo. Here are a few others!

Consider yourself a lucky man. You got your cables sleeved by the sleevemaster himself.

Looks breathtaking!

Oh believe me I do! I think from the evidence that anyone would be hard pressed to find a better skilled, professional product than his cables....

**Jokester_wild** · 09-04-2010, 12:12 AM

This level of sleeving is making me want to redo mine

Ridiculous. Mines good but its sure not that precise!

**Xien16** · 09-04-2010, 05:06 AM

There is one thing I don't like about yout work Martin - It seems like nobody wants to show his system with your sleeves in

**Razarach** · 09-04-2010, 10:09 AM

beautiful, perfect color combination

**Xien16** · 09-05-2010, 04:07 AM

Nice sleevings!

Do anybody have any issues with sleeving the Fully Modular Seasonic X650 series?

EDIT: Just saw the amazing skills by Martin

anything?

**Zeus** · 09-05-2010, 10:01 PM

Just go here and calculate: http://en.mdpc-x.com/ For every 10m of sleeve you will need about 1m of heatshrink. You will need the small heatshrink and sleeve for sleeving a PSU.

Yes, Martin (aka Crys1s_Gam3r) did my Sesonic X650 above in post 2259 and 2260. You will have to ask him if he had any problems, but it certainly looks awesome and I can't tell!

**Huww** · 09-06-2010, 01:16 AM

Does anyone know where I can find the following 2pin connectors:

And then what type of pins would I need for those?

doesnt look like they've got a 1x2 though, so you'd probably have to use 2 x1xs

Great, thanks!

Man do I feel stupid, I spent a good 2 hours trying to find those and since I usual don't order connectors from ppcs I didn't even bother to look there.

I know, right? What's up with that!

Oh well. Excellent work, though, Janik!

Michael: Thanks for posting! If you could post pictures of your rig with the cables installed that would be awesome

nnyymm: I had no issues with the X650's cables.
