Cable Sleeves (am i in the right topic?)

TR10
Go to solution Solved by yannickverc,

Depending on what case you have you wont need sata powered cables. Heck even if you have an H440 like me, the sata cable is barely visible. So yea, basically a 24/6/8 pin sleeved cable. 

 

Check out the result of my sleeved cables in my PC, pictures in my signature :)

Hello!

I'm thinking of getting a PC in March of next year and I wanted my PC to look baller af, So my plan was a regular old Socket LGA 1150 with an i5 4460 and 1 GPU, the Sapphire R9 380 Nitro.

 

So would I be right in saying the sleeves I need are:

1x 24pin CPU 

1x 8pin CPU

1x 4x Sata Power

1x 6+2pin GPU

 

Thanks for Reading!  :lol: and sorry if I'm in the wrong section

I had a choice when I bought my cables to either pick 6 pin or 8 pin. Unless there is a difference between the 6+2pin and 8pin cables that I don't know about.

I think you're right, the website just listed 6+2 and 6 pins, Thanks!

And might I add you have a really nice setup!

Yea I think the custom sleeved cables have the plastic thing for the 8-pin in 1 piece, while the regular ones have a 6-pin in 1 piece with a 2-pin added incase you need an 8-in connection. Damn that's so confusing.

One last question before you leave,

Does 1 6pin connector pack have 2 6pin PCIE Connectors in it?

I think that depends where you buy them from. When I bought mine I had 1 cable in each package.
