Nay or yay on sleeved cables?

Hey guys,

its been awhile before I posted on here I fell in love with the Overclock.net Forums extremely active and some extreme knowledge on there either way, just wanted some comments on my newly sleeved cables. I think i went a little to far on the heatshrink either way.

I personally don't like them in my builds but you pulled it off nicely

so....beautiful:shock:

Thanks for the kind words, its great the only issue is it takes hours and hours :(.

I like them. They only make sense on a "This will be like this for a year or more" build though.

Once its done it becomes an art. Yay for sleeved cables, a rig's interior look butt ugly without them.

That looks fantastic,

I personally don't sleeve my cables as it's generally to time consuming, plus i don't have a transparent side panel anyways so it's not like it's gonna matter much.

They look good but I sure as hell don't have the free time to do all that. That's why I just got some of these, can't tell the difference with cases that you can route cables behind the back panel. Think Amazon has red, blue, white and black.

Is that your PC? Holy smokes. Beautiful. Color coordinated and everything. So neat, and perdy... Which PC case is that? Looks like I'll have to switch..

Forgive my ignorance, but why is it better to seperate out the cables like this instead of keeping thems wrapped together like normal? Is it purely aesthetic?

Show off :P

Sleeving cables isn't a bad idea for cable and airflow management.

Your Corsair water cooler, is that the new H70 or is that the H50? How does it work? I have been reading about the new H70 on Tomshardware today and I was thinking that it might be a better direction to go since it is self contained. What are your thoughts, since you stuffed it in that amazing looking system?

Sure looks good. I personally don't care how my PC looks inside, cos i won't be look at it once it's built. Stylish case is enough for me (considering Fractal R3).groowagon

It's obviously for looks, and it looks rad. Increasing the radius by limit x-> 0+ x is not going to make a difference in air flow... or maybe it will even help if it does not resist air as much.

[QUOTE="groowagon"][QUOTE="Animatronic64"] Well, there's more to it than just looks. Better airflow, and it makes cleaning easy. I always make sure that the inside of my case is always super neat, though I do not sleeve my cables like this.

Great rig, by the way. Looks absolutely fantastic.
