I have been looking for PSU cables for a couple of days now and cannot find what I need (probably because I don't know exactly what I need). 

 

I am building two systems (well one is an upgrade, the other is a new build). In those systems I will most likely be going with the EVGA 750W PSU (modular PSU), so I need two different color options for my cables. My PC is themed black and red so my PSU cables need to be red (Think Corsair red). My girlfriend's PC will be themed black and green and will need green PSU cables (her favorite color is green).

 

What are my options here? I've heard of sleeving and wrapping. I've also heard that you can buy custom colored PSU cables. Where do I go for this (links)?

I'd just get two Corsair fully modular PSU's and then get Cablemod cables for them.

EVGA's higher wattage G2's come with red and black cables BTW

Someone suggested this but I have no clue what they are.. Link please

 

Wait.. Just searched, I think that is exactly what I need! Does this mean I don't need a modular PSU? How do these work? The case she has (and I'm getting too) is the NZXT S340. The PSU is hidden underneath a metal plate and I think the cable routing is done through the back, behind a chassis bar (the one with the NZXT logo). This could completely change my build dude/miss!

I did search, but was led to other websites and wasn't sure what I was looking at. It only made me more confused, but I searched it again on youtube and google and found some videos and pictures of them in PCs.
