Custom Coloured cables ?!?!

Im building my first PC to get into PC gaming (Here's the link to it: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/nCRzNN) and I was just wondering what custom cables I would need, the cables need to be either; Red, Red/ Black or maybe Red/ White. The only place I know is Cable Mod but I dont know what cables I need. If anyone can help it will be much appreciated.

Considering the PSU isn't modular, you can only get sleeved extensions unless you sleeve them yourself, and sleeved extensions are messy, if you want custom sleeved that isn't extensions you need to get a semi/full modular PSU and buy a cable kit for that specified GPU online

 | CPU: AMD FX 8350 + H100i | GPU: AMD R9 290X + NZXT Kraken | RAM: HyperX Beast 2033 16GB | PSU: EVGA G2 | MOBO: ASRock 970M |

| CASE: Corsair Carbide 88R |STORAGE: 1x WD Black | KEYBOARD: Corsair K70 | MOUSE: R.A.T 9 |

Welcome to the Forums!

 

For that TS series of PSU's Cable mod doesn't have fully sleeved replacement so you will only be able to use extensions unless you get a unit that is compatible with their cables.

I have had several disussions with @don_svetlio about this. a 6600k bottlenecks a titan x. Titan x - 1070 - 1080.

 

Not on all games but on some it will be noticable.

Off topic but would upgrading to an I7 processor be a wise idea or, change the GPU or, change both the processor and graphics card
