Sleeving PSU Cables

Go to solution Solved by H4nn3s,

I would get extensions, its much easier

I have a corsair cx600m PSU and want to sleeve the cables. The 6 pins and 2 pins are double wires so should I buy extensions to sleeve them, or does anyone else have another way. I know that efficiency is lost by extentions and you have more cable length to deal with but I think it is the only way I can do it. So should I use visible heat shrink tubing or just get extensions?
