If your just sleeving your default cables, not allot will be required. Sata & molex will be the hard ones if theirs multiple connectors in one cable.
Also their usually 2 double crimped cables in GPU & 3 in ATX cable. It's very hard to get those cables back into the connector due to the increased sized (It is doable). Some just replaced those wires with new wires & solder them in the middle, So they don't have to get those wires back into the connector.
Items Needed:
- Heatgun or a bunch of lighters (I suggest lighter, Heatguns usually have a wider range of heat and can melt your sleeving if your not careful)
- Heatshrink (Glue or Normal version)
- Flush cutters (You can use scissors). I prefer flush cutter, Plus only 5 dollars at Amazon.
- Sleeving (I prefer MDPC-X, since is higher quality)
- You can buy extra connectors, It's doubtful it will be needed unless you want to replace the default one.
- Terminals (Just incase you need to replace any)
Most can be bought from Mod-One. It's where I buy most of my sleeving items. Their also a bit cheaper on certain items compared to other sites which can charge you double the price for terminals & connectors.
Small = PSU cables, FP = usually used for multiple wires in on sleeving. Sata = Sata Cables (Duh).
All the Sleeving tools can be bought at Mod-One too.
