cutting powersupply wires question

[shaggyhobo]

im modding a new case and im working on cable managment and i was wanting to cut a few wires off my power supply, meaning cut off one of my sata line(dont need 2, only one) and some of my 12v lines, would this hurt my powersupply at all? as far as i can tell as long as i have some load on the ps and i cap off the open line then i should be good right? i am not thinking of something?....thanks

you shouldn't have a problem. Make sure you cover the ends with electrical tape really good but other than that you should be ok.

But I'd have to say don't screw with your PSU unless you absolutely have to.

see im going for a clean look so id like to hide as many wires as possible but theres little room to work with and to many cables to hide, but im not messing with the guts just the wires
