    There are a ton of options for custom sleeved cables right now, so I figured I'd do a roundup discussing the differences between today's most popular options and my experience with each.

    While checking your video, as per your wrist watch, I noticed that you started recording at 5:55pm and finished at 6:40pm. Your watch was been displayed when you were explaining the differences on those cables, and that got me thinking on how much time and dedication you have for your channel. It is very possible to take all what you said and record it in one shot, but to take almost an hour to make it perfect, to say the right things and to make it interesting, that's amazing.

Im curious because i purchased a set from a comoany on ebay who advertised them to be red & black however sent me solid red ones so im thinking about resleeving them myself to get the red & black im looking for however i need to know the sleeve size.

      When I get a PC Workshop set up, I'll have to revisit this video, and do my own comparisons, and put it up here... When I do mine though, I will also cut some cables up, to see what they look like inside and try to actually measure the sleeving material thickness...

    I para-cord sleeved my last PSU only because the only company making them at the time was cablemod and way too expensive. After watching some how-to vids, I did my own.
    Flash forward to my latest build, I was happy to see the cheaper options offering full sets for $30ish in a rainbow of colors. I went with a nice light blue/black combo for $30 on Amazon, the brand was "EZDIY-FAB". They are the PET plastic sleeved cables and look really sharp. They are super stiff, come with black combs and look incredible in my new PC. Definitely worth trying out the cheaper options for sure! I would pick these any day over DIY.

    EZDIY cables are awesome too, grabbed some off Amazon, nice soft sleeve (not sure if paracord but definitely a cloth of some sort), long extensions (think they were like 40 or 45cm), big range of colours, phat sleeves and wire guage. Feels like buying Cablemod at a fraction of the price tbh (i had some cablemod basic cables, these are actually way better than those atleast)

The quality was solid and even the packaging was way better than I expected. Mine did not have wide gaps but it did exhibit the bending you showed.

      True make them myself, also i really need to i have a enormous big case with an overkill custom loop and it's heavily oc'd (CPU,GPU) i need 14 AWG +wires to my base components :p But MDPC-X is very overpriced if you buy all of their components. I just buy the sleevings :) I wanted to ordered from their site and for al the the stuff i need it was over 600 euro and 50 shipping + i have to spend hours making them myself .... So I went to a a big special electronic store aimed toward businesses (i was surprised they let me buy stuff they said where the stuff was located roughly somewhere in the massive warehouse) bought it in bulk so at least got double the amount for 1/8 off the price.
      The quality is even better, if you have technical knowledge and pick the best ones and have like a catalog with numbers and specs they had because the amount off variation and brands. What i picked compared to MDPC-X stuff is the inside wire is a bit thicker and isolation comes in all sorts so i bought a high heat resistance and still thin and flex, the pins are pure copper even look gold plated resistance is a few micro ohms less and the connectors are available with higher max watt specs over what you see normally. The prices those mod shops ask for pins, wires and connectors are ridiculous.
      If i bought the cheaper stuff i could get it for 1/12 off the price. The sleeving is the only thing not really available in such quality and colour

    • @westonbahr3037
      @westonbahr3037 6 лет назад

      Mr. NeedMoreMhz That’s an awesome suggestion! I agree about the prices for the non-sleeve supplies. I started ordering directly from Mauser, and they have much better prices than most. Their site is difficult to navigate though.
      One trick I’ve learned is to use transparent heatshrink from the local Frys or electronics store instead of black. This lets you clearly see when the sleeving is properly melted. I mess up so much less when using clear. Cheers!

    something really bugs me about the entire concept of cable extensions. only takes one iffy wire to jeopardize your components... are looks really that important? i would much rather SHORTEN my cables than make them longer. granted, my background is primarily in car audio installation, but computers deal primarily with DC power as well so i have some practical knowledge here. these cable extensions all have a NEGATIVE performance impact. you can minimize the performance hit with high quality, but you cannot eliminate it. DC voltage is very sensitive to impedance, especially at higher amperages. all those extra connections and lengths of wire can only drag down your voltage. i can foresee someone being very confused after adding all them pretty wires to their fancy 'puter and then suffering unexplained performance reductions or even crashes.

    • @hehawkiller

    I recently upgraded from a set of those thin extensions to the UpHere cables and OMG what a world of difference. The old cables were some cheap Raidmax garbage that I bought from Fry's and they were impossible to get looking nice. The wires were never straight, standard size combs didn't fit, and the runs looked terrible because the extensions were too short. The UpHere cables on the other hand were incredibly easy to train, were actually long enough to get where they needed to go, and they look spectacular without breaking the bank. They took my PC from something that was aesthetically "just okay" to something I would proudly put on display.

    extremely misleading vid. You need to make it MUCH CLEARER that you're showing/linking custom cable EXTENSIONS not REPLACEMENT CABLES. Your extension fit onto existing cables, such that what you create is a grotesque mess of cables at your PSU - you must keep your existing huge tangle of cables + add these $30 extensions on top of it. So unless you have plenty of room in your PC (with separated/hidden PSU compartment etc.), these extensions are a disaster. So for $30 you're doing nothing to manage the bird's nest of cables if you're a small form factor builder for instance. For full replacement cables, there's no good cheap option out there currently.

    Cablemod pro series are 3.4mm thick. Custom cable sleeving with 550 Paracord or MDPC-X is 4mm. Asia horse, Up here, etc. PET sleeving is a significantly lower quality sleeve than MDPC-X, Mainframe Customs Telios sleeve. Best quality sleeved cables are good Paracord, MDPC-X, and Telios from individual vendors. Cablemod pro cables are an awesome alternative.
    To restate, if you want cables here is the basic rundown:
    1. Highest quality and price: MDPC-X, Telios, or Paracord from individual vendors. $200 to $300 for a full psu replacement set. These are such a huge cut above the rest in quality. However, you won't get more performance so you shouldn't spend on this unless you have a decent budget or intend to keep through multiple builds.
    2. Best general option for most: Cablemod Pro pre made kits are a great value but clearly worse quality than true full handmade custom sets and you will have extremely occasional qc issues with fitment and sleeve separation. $100 for a premade psu replacement set, $200 for a custom psu replacement set. $50 for extension set.
    3. Best "cheap" option for extensions only Asiahorse, uphere, etc. Extensions are solid basic set of extensions that'll work and look nice but will definitely have some fit or quality control issues. $30 to $40 for a set.
