Well I finally got to sleeving my lil Enlight 420W PSU. :)
So here's some pics! Removing pins from the plastic connectors were easier than expected, but sliding the damn heatshrink over the molex pins sucked.

The completed PSU:

A shot of the whole case, sorry if it's a lil big. :D

Picked up some Sunbeam Anodized Thumbscrews as well.

Cost? Well the sleeves and heatshrink was all bought in a single kit costing RM75 (abt US20) and the thumbscrews were RM10 for 4 (abt US3). Got them all from a member of a local Malaysian forum.

Great job! Is there anyway that you can hide those wires on the side of your drivebays next to the window?

Anodized screws are so great...:) I have the same ones, but in black.

Yeah I can hide them if I route them behind on the other side of the case, then come through a lil hole near the front bottom of the case.

But I kinda like the look of the blue sleeves, so I decided to let them be visible. :)

Nifty work.

I'm sure your ambient temp in the case drops after sleeving as well.

Yes, love those screws.

thats cool. :cool:

I always wanted to do that when I had my Lian Li PC71 but I never had the ambition to actually get in there to do it.
