Power Cables

Didn't know where to put this, mods if it needs moving you know what to do

I want to braid only the most visible cables as I'm going to be putting most of them at the back hidden, what extension cables shall I buy to braid?

24 pin ATX
8 pin (4+4) EPS 12v
PCI express power cables

They are basically the ones you can't tuck away and hide.

bitfenix do the nicest braided extensions

I want too do it myself and save myself some money because I already have some braid on order

I bet I could save about £10

I was going to do the same thing, but it ended up being too much for me, but I may end up doing it

+1 for the bitfenix range, the nzxt versions are a lot stiffer and have a very shiny plastic feel to them. Makes them a bit harder to bend into shape, unlike the fabric type bitfenix cables.

Bought a 8 Pin and a 24 Pin for £8.05, got the braid on order too just gotta buy the tool

Just hope I don't blow the motherboard.

It's looking at this braid, that I wish I didn't buy a modular power supply.

I would do that but you wont see it as it will be under the desk next to the surge lead, but I'm only buying small size Braid too.
