Hey everyone, im doing a new build with some minor mods inside with green accent and black base colour. Im relatively new to the idividual cable sleeving scene so you will have to forgive my lack of knowlage.

 

First of all i was wondering which type/brand of cable sleeving and heatshrink. Ive heard good things about mdpc. Im looking for someone who has expeiriance with some different types of sleeving and heatshrink.

 

Secondly, I am going to purchase the Corsair AX860i Power Supply and I was wondering if i should just use the cables and connecters that come with it or but something else.

 

And last of all what tools i should get for this job.

 

Thanks!

Check out some of Corsairs own sleeved cables, it may be helpful to you. They have three pages of options you can look through.
