Lutro0's sleeving is your best bet. Not sure the gauge but I know for a fact its perfect for individual wires

Hello everyone, 

I have an upcoming build (a couple of months - finally found a nice job to finance my project  :D ) and am set on sleeving my cables (PSU, SATA, etc.) but I came across an issue... 

I have no idea what thickness sleeves to use, literally none.

I will be individually sleeving each cable, 24 pin, 8 pin, etc. for a Silverstone Strider Gold ST85FS-GS 850W (might change the wattage - still working on the logistics) 

 

Any help will be awesome! 

 

(I might do a build log, depends...like may be?)

Not as fun as sleeving yourself. And when you sleeve yourself, you can go whatever color scheme you want.

Here is a comparison of your different options:

ATX cables are best sleeved with around 4mm sleeving if that is any help :)
