Electric tape repercussions?

[KingOFCruel]

Are their any repercussions of wrapping psu/ Pci wires in electrical tape? don't have a fully modular PSU and hate the odd look of the cables that just stand out, so i'm thinking about covering them in white electrical tape. Since it's non-conductive it should work out fine right?

No, you should be fine. Doesn't look the prettiest but it will work.

unless you do something really crazy you will be fine.

YES! in the future when you unwrap them they'll be all sticky and gross.. >> I've done it myself

Yeah after a while the glue can get nasty. This can be fixed with acetone or methylated spirits.

it would look pretty butt-ugly and would recommend saving up and getting some cable extensions or something similar

this^, also over time electrical tape tends to "bleed" adhesive, leaving a sticky mess, if the tape is sitting against your case/motherboard it can leave a residue, its not hard to clean up, just kinda gross and messy. as a side note ive never found a way to make electrical tape 'look good'

Use zip ties to bundle cables.

It just might be a bit of a potato to take it off and might get some sticky residue on it also.
