    Any UV properties to the new B-Magic? Or is that only for the aquamarine?

    Lol dam thats unique, Bet it took you a few hours on each PCIE connector?

    Another thing I find funny is AMD/Intel would snipe any of our Moms on a grocery run if it meant good quarterly results, and you are forever whining about what feser did?

    It's kinda funny how many people have asked this question in this thread. They just reduce electrical noise. You can cut 'em off. =)

    Hi guys, i recently joined the MDPC-x gang and started some sleeving with rather great success/

    However, I am seeking some guidance in how I can sleeve those dual cables coming out from one "pin" of a connector.

    Let me try to explain.

    I have a Seasonic X-series X-850 PSU, for example, the PCI-Express modular cable is split into two to go to two PCI-E 6/8pin connectors. So, some of the pins lead to two wires.

    I'm having a real hard time to sleeve those. What I do is individually sleeve each of the two cables , this is easy.

    Then I put a standard small heatshrink on BOTH cable (hard but it's doable).

    I shrink it with heat, but the result is to "big" to fit again in the previous pin from the connector.

    those two cables coming out of one single pin already take the whole space available in the pin connector, i can't understand how you can achieve something nice, there is no way you can fit it....


    Can someone help? thanks

    PS : if nils from mdpc is reading this, i got the same nickname as on your website for ordering (I loved the picture you drew on the post package )

    Here is what I mean with a pic :



    here are 2 other pics just to show you what i've done so far ;-)

    Hopefully you don't take this suggestion the wrong way, because I do love your work~
    While I would love to be able to post the photos free of watermarks here, it isn't worth the headache that ensues when others claim them as their own. If there are any specific shots that you would like to see without the watermarks, I'd be happy to send you the links. I do agree that it detracts from the overall aesthetic, however I have yet to find another solution.
