Are these any good? going for a Nvidia theme on my case thinking of a Black and Green Cable Mod Cable as well.
 
I guess it depends on where you get them from, but they're probably fine.
 
looks like all the others ive ever seen. try em.
BUT keep in mind that no matter the brand/quality, they most like will lose a bit of the powder coating on the threads, just the nature of metal on metal. ive seen people bitch about that...
 
probably nickel plated pot metal, or anodized alu if you are lucky. Either way, very likely to lose color on the threads, and they do like to crossthread, so be careful especially the first time using them -- the painted case threads don't help. And don't over tighten, as they are two bitches to remove and you will need to use a screwdriver if you do.
 
I always check: to make sure they have the phillips slot in the head- some like that are smooth and truely thumbscrews only; that the threaded part length and screw pitch is like the stock ones; and that the shoulder is not too much wider so it does not overhang the side of the case panel.
 
Wow, having flashbacks on this one. I had to check the post date.

As noted, you can likely tell by the price. The cheap ones typically work a few times, and then strip out.
