Would you buy fans that have been pre-sleeved/shortened, even it it cost more? (Like Corsair RGB fans)

Im trying to gather public interest in a sleeving service that could presleeve fans in addition to core cables.

Yes, like this: (Photo is my own work on my current rig)

Personally, no. Fans are easy to sleeve, so I'd do them myself. I also have a load of left over sleeving supplies, so there's not an extra cost for me

That looks nice, I’d probably only pay around $5 or so extra.

Thats very understandable for your situation. Thanks for explaining your stance!

I wouldn't do it for fans since it depends solely on the cable routing and how things are laid out inside that specific case as it will vary heavily. If you were building a system for someone and having that as a luxury option then I can see it being practical.

That makes sense. Would it be more practical if they were aimed at common fan configs for radiators? Like for example, the customer knew they were going to use a 360mm rad and a 480mm, so they could order fans that are either sleeved to those lengths to get to a splitter, or include extensions for the custom lengths?

It might be doable if you wanted to have a set central location or if the customer specified the lengths, but at that point you could just cut the fan cable short and just have different length extensions like some brands have done.

 

For me it wouldn't be precise enough however I have zero slack my fan cables since they are made in place as I build the system.

No, since there to many options of colors to pick from. Plus Sleeving is not that complex to start with, I tend to re-sleeve cables that are pre-sleeved already.

 

Real quick examples of my sleeving.
