Best cable combs.

I'm guessing this would go here but mods please move if not.

I have tarted up my PC with sleeved cables etc, and I ordered some cable combs to go with them but they just didn't hold the cables tight and kept falling out.

It was these ones, for my gpu, motherboard and the ATX pins. They are crap! They say small for BitFenix etc, I have BitFenix cables and they don't fit.

So could you recommend me some decent ones? I have a tool to remove the pins from the plug so can do that if need be.

I have no idea about cable combs so sorry....but what about threading them together like some people do? Looks very smart

What do you mean? Mind finding me a picture or something?

I'm open to suggestions, it needs sorting as its really bugging me!

It's called Cable Sewing

Yes it looks incredibly smart nicer than combs actually, very time consuming however. But the time is worth it IMHO

Nice guide(series) on how to do this containing no swearing that i can hear so yeah

Not a fan of threading personally but should work fine if you went that route. I got some combs for my old corsair cables and they just looked crap on thin cables.

Thanks Harry, I like that. I'll have a look into it!

Check out f3nix on here. He has made some insane cable combs. I would get in touch with him to see if he can make you some!
Have a look at his build thread for pics

They are awesome but a bit to big for my liking. I just want my cables to all be next to each other neatly, not some massive block over them!

Fair enough, sewing seems to be the one then!

This is going to take me a long time. Can I really be bothered?

I use this guys method as it is quite quick are yields good results.

savagesam117 · 5 Jul 2015 at 18:44

I quite like the look of that. I think I'll go with that one, much quicker too!

You need to be doing it yourself, those E22 cable combs are bloody awful. I've gone through maybe 3 of the 24 slot ones ... they just break and snap.
