We want more PC Builds mate. Your content is exceptional.
agreed lad
I have a few planned before the end of the year 😊 Thanks for the support!
I guess, I'll just pay for my custom sleevings.
Haha come on, it's not that hard!
It's really not that bad just seems like it at first .. actually find it a stress reliever 🚬 save some money too
he said one wrong wire is really bad, i guess thats a warning it will fry your graphics cafrd... NO THS ill stay with standard ketchup mustard wired XD
LegendaryVegeta lol naw bro just get the right wire and you will be fine of course they need to be linked to the same opposing insert you can't let a 12v run to a 3.3v etc... pretty much just line em up
oh i thought he meant each thin wire needs to go toe the exact same wire in the same pin i mean like this:
sc01.alicdn.com/kf/HT1wDZSFHpbXXagOFbXG/200304538/HT1wDZSFHpbXXagOFbXG.jpg
is it ok if the orange and black is accidently swapped on one side?
Damn man your channel is really high quality. Shocked you don't have more subs! Keep up the good work fellow Aussie modder!
Villz - thanks!
late pro tip: if you ever go for full-custom cables, make a very short (like 5 cm) male-male cable without sleeving, and then a male-female sleeved extension cable. This takes more time and resources, but:
1) You never have to awkwardly plug cables directly in and out the PSU, which in some cases is very difficult
2) Your extensions are interchangeable between different builds and PSUs, which also makes them sellable if you ever don't need them anymore
3) You only have the anxiety of following a pinout once (for the short M-M cable), all extensions are just pin to pin forwarding
4) Allows using cable combs normally with different cables (my PSU's 24 pin has 28 wires, but the entire mess is consolidated in the short F-F cable)
So you are saying, just make really long extensions that are 5 cm short of the PSU then make a whole other set to bridge the gap? Sounds to me like you made your custom cables a little too short. lol The reasons you put are pretty stupid. You'd only have to pin them once anyway if you were only making one set. I think those excuses are to convince yourself that you were glad that you messed up. Nice try but that is not a "pro tip" lol.
@@paulweston8184 no, my custom cables weren't "too short" and I didn't "mess up". If I set out to make normal cables, then realized they're too short and made the short ones to bridge the gap (like you theorize) - the pretty cables would be M-M, and the shorties would be M-F, mine are the other way around because that's the entire point.
Not reading what's in front of you and refusing to think is "pretty stupid", my reasons are 100% objectively true. In the time since writing this I've changed out most PC parts. The cables is one of the few things I've kept, despite switching PSUs and going ATX mid tower. I just use the custom extensions with the stock cables. Pro tip paid off.
@@subrezon Your reasons are 100% objective... if you want to make cable extensions.
Your first sentence says "Pro tip: If you ever go for full-custom cables..." (a fully custom cable is _a_ cable with cutom color, custom bends, at a custom length.)
You are just describing the reasons for making a "long" extension which isn't custom at all except for the color. It's still an extension and defeats the purpose.
Sorry if I was harsh in the first post, but I think you were missing the point of the video, which is how to make full custom cables that require more precision.
@@paulweston8184 for one, both the shorties and the extensions are custom, I made both myself. Both together make a cable. I only used stock cables as the first part on my new PSU.
I also made custom bends, even on both the shorty and the extension. The 24-pin shorty let me make an almost instant 90 degree bend in 2 axis, simplifying cable management massively.
And like I mentioned already, It let me eliminate the "two cables go into one pin" mess, which for my previous PSU meant I have 28 cables in my 24-pin, which would have not let me use cable combs. The result looks much, much better than if I went the end-to-end cable route.
Good tip, thanks @subrezon
Ignore the troll, not worth the energy
great video, one thing that I might recommend, especially as you have the mass on the end, before you put them in the power supply plug, if you have a volt meter with an option to check for continuity, use it to double check the pin outs before you place it into the block, it might be a bit over kill but if you are paranoid
+Chris Lucas I actually did this with a DMM and Arduino, great idea to be 100%
I don’t need a pc to show off my bends and curves.
Whoa there sailor
Whoa there boat pilot
Send pic? Nah I’m jk
Quick question, can you strip off the pcie plugs off the original psu cables? Or do I need to find specific pcie plugs that correspond to my psu?
What did you do about the double wires?
Truly exceptional content Mate. I'm just buying the tools, to prepare my first custom ATX cables set using the method YOU showed in this video. Thank you.
3:28 wait. you talk about getting specialty tools for all other aspects of making cables..but dont suggest getting an ATX pin puller? best 12 bucks I spent.
Great job 👏 now those fan cables! 😁
Calls it a mess.
Me: PERFECT! This is one of my best works yet.
This video just made me want to try this. Although I'm still reading up on paracord vs PET
Personally I prefer paracord. Its easier to route. PET is not as flexable and its hard to turn corners in tight spaces.
Well its not hard, but requires A LOT of practice and concentration, 1 wrong cable and gg your rig. Awesome channel, you deserve more subs!
In other words, it’s hard.
@@kouyasakurada5547 What? No
i build stuff like this for a job.. we normally have around 10 mins to build a full harness.. not hard
@@Phuzionz i call bs, you dont build "stuff" like this in 10xmins
@@ItsBoyRed well you're absolutely wrong. when using the correct tooling in the correct environment.. ie. a factory that builds wire harnesses.. this is a very simple task...
I LOVE that you go into such detail, with a particular eye for what your viewers are seeing on-screen. What I love most about good content creators like you is your ability to think not only about what is on-screen, but also what isn't - and that deserves some praise. You don't ramble on end with off-topic remarks and gibberish. You seem to cut, edit and seriously say "no" to a lot of b-roll (at least I'd guess) because the content delivered is on-point and focused at all times. You explain, in a step-by-step process that anyone could pause, EXACTLY what you've done and say no more than is necessary. You tell us what not to do and what can go wrong - F&^% this is useful, THANK YOU.
Overall, I've subbed after one video - this one. Excellent job mate, keep this up! +1 viewer.
With a mini ITX case, custom cables are a must if you want a cleaner look. I'll definitely use your awesome technique when I decide to do this to my PC. Thanks for the video!
Great video. Only small issue I have is the crimp on the wire and insulation was with the same die. The cable die should be smaller and a tighter crimp.
I have an important question about custom sleeving that I have never got answered no matter the research so maybe you could help me out. How do I know which cable from PS is going to which PCIE or SATA etc. hole in the connectors? Because if I put it in the wrong position it could burn the whole GPU or SSD or whatever
Simple, take the original wires that came with the power supply and trace them to see where they go.
I already have a cablemod kit for my PSU, but I'd like to shorten the cables. What if I simply unplug each individual wire from the plug-end, shorten it, replug into the plug-end, one by one? This way I can't mess the pin layout and blow my system
I’m more than happy to do this rather than spend the extra money of buying some, and plus the satisfaction of going. “Yeah, I fuckin did that”
Great video! When I started out sleeving my cables, finding all the information of how to sleeve and getting the cables right was pretty inconvenient. In this video though, the steps are clear and the editing is on point. Definetly looking forward to see the finished Fusion 2 build!
11:28 song name?
Thank you for the tip for binding the sleeve to the wire/pin. I've always done my cables with 12mm of heat-shrink due to ease and speed at which it can be done, but that method results in heat-shrink being visible. So I recently tried super glueing the sleeve to the wire/pin which did work well, but it doesn't work perfectly all the time, sometimes you stick your fingers and/or stick the sleeve in the wrong place while positioning it, or the glue cracks becoming unstuck while manipulating the cables to the desired position.
So I'll have to give your method a try on my next build as it looks very good, plus it doesn't appear that it would take a lot more time and effort. *_*thumbs up..._* Thanks man.
Wow! I'm not sure I have ever read such an eloquently written comment on RUclips. Normally the comments on any video read like an 8yo with autism wrote them.... and in their second language.
Bravo good sir, bravo.
P.S. Love the username :) People that preorder games should be shot in front of their families for such a sin!
Forever Alone Sry that I'm german ...
I stopped preordering video games....
I didn't even know custom sleeves was a thing. You've inspired me to take my next step in improving my PC builds. Looks awesome!
I do wish that you showed a tip on following the wires. It looks like some of them can be tucked inside of the bundle. Is it as hard as I'm thinking?
No, it's only 2 deep and then you're going pin to pin.
swap a 1080ti SC2 for what , a titanxp?
Hell yeahhhh just saw the Coles supermarket staples and was like damn! This guy is an aussie too!
This tutorial is great but like all the tutorials I've watched there is literally nothing on here about how to follow a pinout guide - can anyone point me in the right direction
Hot damn. I don’t know why this tall drink of water was not in my recommend sooner.
strippers are always necessary, cmon...
Why I loved sleeving so much and order with that video? You are great but not perfect! I want to see perfect sleeving all over the case (I don't know why?) Do I have OCD? what do you think? more Sleeve and ordering videos needed!
my mans really has the exact same editing style as hardwarecanuks.
Hans Peder Sahl (P0pe) is from denmark :)
Hans Peder is danish, just letting you know. Your channel is overall very sexy, can't wait to see your channel grow.
cant you just use coloured electrical tape dawg
So much trial and error to get this right...Good tools help a LOT. Especially the crimping tool..Don't forget to check your pin is crimped on in the right orientation..you don't want to have to twist the cable because the pin wasn't crimped aligned right..ie make sure the little tabs face the right way
Aren't the actual black connectors MALE connectors? (The black plastic housing that each metal female terminal is inserted into).
In the video, you mention "female plugs on both ends" (02:30) but wanted to make sure.
I have seen a few sleeving guides now and this is by far the best one that I have seen.
Great production quality too!

Everywhere I look, the pin-out for the EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G3 only shows one side of the pin-out, doesn't specify which side it is, and apparently EVGA has three double wires (pain in the ass!) I'm just going to buy shorty's and extensions. Screw this PSU.
for this kind of use case PET is better. I have RC model helicopters and use Paracord due to it being softer and doesnt straighten out on its own
What wires should I buy? Ive been searching what type of wire? can I use 18 or 16 AWG automotive wire?
This is some really great evergreen content. There aren't many people who do good tutorials on stuff like this.
Wearing wired headphones, with black cabling, whilst custom cutting black cabling, is bold 😂
Hey I want to sleeve my own cables. that's not theproblem. The problem is.. the cables dont like up to their corresponding pin at the other end...
Can I switch the ??? Like instead of pin 1 going to pin 3 on a gpu plug can I do 1 to 1? Or is there other communication for the psu?
What kind of 16 AWG cable should I use? Instructions unclear. There's plenty of variants, like solid core, etc.
Just don't understand. If you say are wiring up the EPS 8 pin. Wouldn't you just run a wire through all 8? Why need a diagram? Is there say blank spots in the diagram where one does not run a live cable?
the only part that i do not understand is how to read the pin out diagram, could you help me? Maybe how to came to understand it?
I dont understand the searching up the “pinout”. Can’t i individually run a cable thru my fingers and put it into its designated slot. Plz correct me if I’m wrong and why the pinout is needed. Thankss
what is the pin out repository or diagram for? are like different cables supposed to be different wires or are you just supposed to make sure that the corresponding cable from PSU plugs into the correct MB connector?????
Please tell the wire gauge I need: is it AWG 16 or 18? Thanks a lot
16 awg is the better option
@@rookie693 thank you very much
Doing this for the first time. Just wondering how to do a sata power push-though connector. (@t Would you make a shrink before and after the connector, or would you do one bigger piece and just push the connector thought the shrink tube and the outlining of the cable?
Oh my god... You meant hand making each cable? Respect, but I won't be doing this. Will watch the whole video anyway.
what about sleeving the cable before crimping the connectors on and crimping the terminals onto the sleeved cable
Does anyone have recommendations on a cable/socket pic or terminal removal tool instead of staples? I have been building my own cables forever and generally use staple or needles and whatever i can find but I have everything else It would be nice to have an appropriate tool for this last part..
Hi! What music did you use for the B-Roll at 10:40?
3:32 There are inexpensive tools for that, likely not much more expensive than the box of staples. And much more convenient to use.
I just want to ask what the exact type of Cable Comb did you used in this video because this is not an ordinary cable comb it seem that their’s an exact called for this type of cable comb?
Thoughts re combining 1 or 2 90-degree adapters to avoid 180-degree bends when plugging cables in..?
This way the cable plugs straight up to the connector & the adapter handles the arc-changes in the z-axis (where the width of the cable is the x-axis) ...?
Guys, if just cut out like 20cm of the excisting corsair cables and then solder them back together with a shrink tube, will that work as well?
I was just looking for how to lengthin my psu cords because I'm building a pc from a pre-built pc
Where can I buy this kind of stuff? I’ve been searching for hours and I can’t seem to find what I’m looking for.
Can you add more information, like crimp connector size? is it 18-24 or 26-20 AWG?
I want to do my own cable’s myself but i am so scared to mess up but yeah none of the one’s online look the way i want them to and i would love to do it myself as i can control the length and not have excess cord under and around my power supply
I thought the pin outs we're standardized. Don't you need a multimeter to make sure you don't mix around things?
pro tip. dont buy shitty wire where most of it is aluminum and 10% copper. get the full copper cables.
store.cablemod.com/configurator/
btw guys this is a place that will do it for you, even down to the mm you want. for you lazy fucks like me. lol I do plan on doing this but first I want a pro to do it for me till I figure out what I want
Is nobody bothered about the fact that the thickness of the cable becomes inconsistent? Is there a way to "tighten" the sleeving on the cable so it doesnt look like a digesting snake?
Question, what gauge wire should I use for rm1000x?
where do you buy PET sleeving. the link in the description redirects to presleeved cables
Hello, could you tell me where exactly you bought the wire, sleeves and connectors from?
does anyone know what the compatibility for PSU cables are/
What if my crimped terminals do not fit into the connector holes? I thought I'd purchased the correct size.
I think sleeves are overrated. the length stuff is on point, but heatshrink is life, and sleeving is meh :/ just seems so extra!
well, Kinda wasted at the end via re cutting and re crimping , measure according to size , crimp wire one on both connectors , then 2 etc etc saves materials as well as time .
What type of wire? What are the specifications? I went to the electrical store and they let me choose wether it is THHN or THWN.
shouldn't it be 2 MALE connectors on both sides if you plug bot in instead of receiving ?
Who makes cables?
You can just buy them for like 20 dollars on amazon
Hi really amazing work , if u 3d printed cable cones can u share the print file ?
Great vid. Should like to see a shopping list for a first-time sleever.
Zap cables is my choice for custom keyboard cables and may be helpful here
is crimper necessary? can it be done with norrow tail? what spec crimper must have?
Small matx pc case similar to metalfish s5 i want to custom mod my cable because its tight fit in the case
This should be thing that custom PC builders offer.
can someone give me link where i can buy good 16 gauge wire? i am looking in amazon but i cant find any good
Links in the description bring you to a site that doesn't sell the parts but sells the finished product lol wtf is the point
I didnt understand how to pinout the cables like the psu diagram , can some one explain how to do it ?
I got the sleeve and just used the good old psu cables no wires crimping n all and since i did it all one by one it was easier not to crew with the pinouts
No mention of lutro or singularity for the shrinkless method?? Oh right they’re old
Can’t i just buy them?
I ONLY REALIZED THIS VIDEO IS FROM 2017 AFTER I WATCHED IT
Where did you get the crimp plier, atx pins and pcie plugs/connectors ?
Where can I buy those 24 pin & pcie female plugs?
I dont understand much about the diagram can sb explain
so handsome :D
Your mans not hot
I think it’s better and cheaper if u just buy a factory made one 💀
what size cable sleving for 16 gauge wire?
If the sleeves are same color it's a bit more challenging, saw this video long time ago finally going to make my own now. That's man, this helped me and that's to the other guys also. Keep up the good work on your channel.
the diameter of the sleeveng cables you use please
True Definition Of Lit!🔥
Your videos are great! Love every one so far. Your technique is wonderfull to observe!
However, please consider using Molex crimp tool. It costs a bit, but cuts your crimps down to a single crimp, for each pin. Now it looks like you are doing 2 or 3 for each.
