On the right is a Set of Black Sleeved cables for the AX1200 from Corsair. I had already decided to sleeve my own cables this go around, but will be using the “guts” from these for my custom cut lengths.

I'm assuming you made those short led strips. You just solder straight to the strip? I'm also assuming thats just a standard fan connection you have at the end? I've used the LEDwholesaler strips at home before but never cut it up and redid the connections.

I'd love to see close ups of those!

BINGO! There are two versions of Corsair Link Kits that you can get. One is just the main unit and a fan controller/temp sensor hub, the other also includes the LED light kit.

But I did solder my own connections using the LED Strip for the light panel, and the one going around the inside of the case. Here is a larger image of one of the connections I did. Click on it for a larger version.

Sleeving... COMPLETED!

MNPCTECH finally has their MOD Ruler / Gauge back in stock, and mine came in this week. Pretty sweet little modding tool, but I won't have a chance to use it this time around since I am wrapping up the build. But since I can't seem to go more than 6 months without modding / upgrading something, it will get plenty of future use.

All major sleeving is now complete. All I have left on the build is to connect all my fans an pumps to the AquaComputer / Corsair Link, and finish my tubing runs.

I know for sure that I will be using a two (2) AquaComputer USB PowerAdjusts to control my pumps, since they operate independently from other monitoring component. I will be testing the Aquero 5 and Corsair Link separately to see which will end up in my system long term to control my fans.

I still have to secure some of the cable runs to the back of the case with my cable clamps from MDPC, but here is a basic shot of all the major cables connected. Also in the pic is the SATA Power cable that I connected to the Hot Swap plate. It was very easy to sleeve, but a pain to get the actual wire to go in the connector. Ended up using a hammer to "tap" the two parts of the connector together.
