Sleeving. Better Airflow?
I bought some sleeving today at Fry's and put it on my Ultra Kaze's. Not that I have to worry about airflow but I'm just curious... is there any other purpose besides looks to sleeving?

since you arent using a case, then no. but it does bring organzation.

Unnecessary?
We only do necessary things. Sometimes that might seem crazy or an overkill. But everything happens in the Pursuit of Performance!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_(physics) It will change your opinion. Or even better , just look at the picture. Imagine the red dot being a sleeve. Air will go around the red dot / sleeve much eaasyer and better than it there where alot of red dots / wire's...

lol... for the most part you're right, but when one has 12 fans, 2 controllers, multiple GPU's and a host of other power/data cables, it can help to minimize the profiles and ease the "bird's nest" of wiring. Keeping the open-area in the case open does help with airflow.
