Yes. But IMO if you're going to take the time to uni-sleeve cables, I'd bet that you'll also be doing excellent cable management, thereby increasing airflow. So it's more of a placebo effect, as far as thermal performance goes. :D
I guess so, but I buy all my sleeve from mdpc-x anyway. BTW if you're only getting 30-40 meters, the shipping is a very reasonable 11 euro from Germany to US.
Oh, heh, sorry I completely skimmed over that.
I think black/grey or black/grey/red would look good (as long as you get rid of the blue CCFLs):
Hope that helps :)
This is what I do (copied from my post at evga):
Get two staples, then bend them so they form an "L". Insert the long end of the staple onto between the sides of the pins and the connector. Push them down far enough that they push the metal tabs in, then pull the cable out. Obviously easier...
Oh, and I should have mentioned: you can get by with a lot less sleeve if you only uni-sleeve the last 12" (visible portion), and then use big sleeve to cover the rest of the cable.
the.ronin: the 96 meters figure also includes the molex and sata cables :)
Heh, cool. :)
The HX1000 sticker blue is much closer to the aquamarine blue than the grand (darker) bleu. I don't have an HX1000 here ATM to take a shot with the aqua and grand bleu next to it, but one should be coming in this week for me to sleeve. If I remember, I'll post a pic. :)
BTW - you...
Depends completely on the PSU. If you're going to be sleeving it the full length, then multiply the length of each cable by the number of wires it has (ie a 20" 24pin will use 480 inches = ~12.2 meters). For reference... to fully uni-sleeve every wire (including all modular cables) on the...
Yes, hs should go in the connector. All the order I've placed have taken 8-9 business days to arrive, except for one that was delayed at customs and took a month.
Here's the sleeving process photos I promised (sorry for the long wait):
I couldn't get a good shot of tilting down the wire, but I hope you can see what I mean in the second pic (imagine the wire upside-down).
More color combos:
Enjoy :)
Do you have a decent camera? Canon just released the Rebel T2i, you can get the body for $799 or with the kit 18-55mm IS lens for $899. Also has HD video recording, 1080p @30fps and 720p @up to 60fps.
It should be easy enough to mod the the controller. Just take off the casing and find the wires connecting the mic to the pcb. Cut and splice a 3.5mm extension cable (or old headphone cable), and solder one of the two wires to the spot where the mic wire is attached to the PCB (I doubt the mic...
Thanks all :)
This is the advice I posted @ XS:
To cut them to the same length, I have a piece of Styrofoam with a cutout (length 0.5"). The heatshrink is then pressed into the cutout, and cut it at the opening with scissors.
Just make sure the sleeve is exactly the same distance from the end...
