Sleeving will do almost nothing in terms of airflow. And have absolutely no affect on temps. As somebody who has studied 3 years of college level physics, I will gauruntee that. Cable management on the other, will absolutely help.


Plus, good cable management means whether they're sleeved or not should not change airflow.

Ah. Almost isn't everything. So it does help a bit ! Over here in The Netherlands we say " Alle beetjes helpen. ". Which means , " All bits help. ". Also known as , every small bit helps. Put alot of small bits together , and you'll have one big bit that helps alot !

Besides , studying something is one thing , but if the books are right that you get the knowledge from , that's something else.
