CabeMod, why does your white cabling look so silver?

Arct1c0n

So i'm getting fucking pissed off at my Bit Fenix Alchemy 2.0 kit on my new computer build as they fucking used not only a varied diameter of wire thickness which makes my cablecombs from MNPC unable to fucking clip on to the wires, but they also for some fucking reason have around 6 extra wires on the the 24 pin main power plug that I cannot attach to the comb. WTF?  It looks like shit, no matter what I do.

So now i'm THINKING>..... JUST THINKING about doing a CableMods swap out as it looks like your cables are actually all THE SAME THICKNESS and NO EXTRA WIRES!!

 

However, in all the pictures of your cables, your "white" looks REALLY silver, which is not what I want.

Does look to have a silver cast but its probably just the pictures to be honest.

 

If you're only using extensions, i recommend SilverStone cables, using them in my build atm, all wires are the same thickness and they're definitely white, and cheap.

24 pin - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00B69IZNI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

6+2 pcie - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00B69JAGY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

6 pin only pcie https://www.amazon.co.uk/SilverStone-SST-PP07-IDE6W-PCIE-6pin-PCIE-6pin-250mm-white/dp/B00B46XJRK/ref=pd_sim_147_3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=8B90FNE61DMM0EGQ50D3

 

they also do 4+4 cpu power cables - https://www.amazon.co.uk/SilverStone-SST-PP07-EPS8W-Sleeved-Extention-Cable/dp/B00B69IZFG/ref=pd_sim_147_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=7GKNN28Y4S42AXKD655R

 

And possibly others but i haven't looked at others by them.

Yeah training them is tough, took about two weeks for mine to get into shape, and even now they aren't as perfect as i'd like them to be (about 3 months after purchase haha)

Seasonic snow silent and no, no way I'm using extensions as I have tempered glass case on other side and extensions will look like shit
