Sleeving

[Red Harbinger]

wondering what kind of sleeving to get and which size and length? i was thinking of going with lutro0 custom telios 4mm sleeving 25 foot of black and 25 foot of white from frozenpc. is this at all good? and will it be enough to cover all my cables

I'd say go for the MDPC X sleeving. @marto will be able to help.

Hey I'm in the midst of figuring out this myself, Lutro0 recommend that you find your PSU's datasheet which will list exactly how long each cable is in mm. Take that number, multiply by number of cables you'll be doing, multiply by number of individual wires in each cable and then add them all together.

 

Length of cable X number of cables to sleeve X number of wires per cable = length needed

For example, for my 24 pin I would need:

610mm x 1 cable x 24 wires = 14.64 meters of sleeving

 

Correct me if I am incorrect people with actual experience, here's the chart for what I think I'll need:

 

 

So I came up with a total of almost 118 feet, but I'm not doing any fan cables or sata data cables.

That is correct, but if you are new at Sleeving, my recommendation would be to get about 50 to 100 feet more then you need for trial and errors, that way if you make any mistakes you do not have to order or wait for more to arrive.

thankyou, well im doing a ax1200i hopefully in black and white so do to do the full psu i got 168 feet, so i should probably get around 175-200 to be safe. please correct me if im wrong if that doesnt make sense

 

also for heatshrink i was going to buy this Mod/Smart Perfect Cut Heatshrink 1/4" x 15mm - 125 Pack - Black (HS-1/4-BK-15mm) is that enough? and is that correct size as well?

I'm gonna come clean. I bought the Amazon sleeving kit and it was not enough. I only sleeved to about 6" past the grommets, then electrical taped in place. I'm a noob!
