Hi peeps,

Just thought I'd ask a rather curious question, do you have sleeved cables or regular cables in your rig?

Yep, that's about it.

I've added a poll to get an overall view, but I'd appreciate you also commenting below, please.

Cheers,

Matt (AKA Geekazoid)

Yeah, as nice as it is it's kinda hard to justify the expensive just for a bit of coloured material covering your cables (like a jumper for your cables)?

Wheres the option for mixed? Mine is half and half.

Well, I didn't really think people would have sleeved cables mixed with regular cables, that's why that option doesn't exist.

Regular cables with sleeved extensions.

I have a semi modular psu with sleeved extensions if that counts lol

I prefer blacked out cables with just normal insulation. Sleeving frayes, gets dusty, and most have heat shrink which greatly increases the bend radius at connectors
