Cutting Psu wires?

[timmymeuk1]

Haha simple question can I cut cables off psu and would it still work?

If you are cutting wires off that you need then no
If you cutting wires that you don't need E.G Fdd floppy power, then yes. It just wont work the floppy drive

Yeh just been reading all about it, I have 2 floppy and 2 sata and few over cables i dont need for my mod and would get in the way overwise!

Just make sure the wires dont contact each other. Otherwise it should be fine.

Remember and make it neat and tidy, put a rubber cap around the end or something. Cut about 2-3cm from the powersupply then wrap it in something what isnt conductive or you will get a shock next time you touch your case

I did this, used some heat-shrink over the ends of the cables.

Make sure you turn the power off before you cut the wires

 

[Kennysevenfold]

Wrap them up after you have cut them.!

 

[SlugForAButt]

Insulation tape covered by heat shrink would be the best looking and safest way.
Whatever, just make sure you get some tightly wrapped insulation tape around the bare ends.

I'm considoring it, I'd rather keep my warrenty intact though.
