Glad you like it.

Yeah it's the same one as on hexus, but I thought it's best to spread it round so everyone can have a go

Just a selection of photos while i was sleeving my yates on my test bench

Why did you cut the strut out? Seems like it would unbalance the fan.

 

[bentleya]

@ Jeddy - It was broken, fan works just use as a test for stuff ETC

very well explained moogle, psu sleeving sure is hard, thanks that today new PSUs come sleeved most of the time, also sleeving helps alot with cable management wich not only looks better but helps air circulation (you could put this last phrase on the guide, since many people think sleeving / doing cable management is only for the looks)]

PSU sleeving isn't nessecarily hard,it's just time consuming,i usally use sticky tabs to label all the wires numerically then peel them off after.

Also having a decent psu modding tool kit can work wonders!

Long gone are the days of trying to dislodge molex connectors with paper clips,omg that was painful.

Also yes most decent psu's come pre braided,but more than often in black,which is quite bland when trying to get your modded case looking right.

for those interested in braiding take a look at what's available here:

Also there are a range of connectors which can be found here:
