To go premade sleeved or make myself?

Thread Starter 
I have the silverstone 850 fully modular psu, with in-line caps to regulate power flow. I really want to go with individually sleeved ones but dont want to mess with my stock cables. Yet again my stock cables are very well made, so well in fact that it has me thinking that from a performance aspect forget about sleeving. But from the visual aspect i want to have my computer look just as boss as it truly is.

What should i do with the situation?

It's completely up to you. I don't think anyone here can get in your head enough to make you do it one way or the other. If you like them as they are then leave them. If you are comfortable with your ability to sleeve them then do that. Of course you can always buy sleeved cables which from what you are saying might be your best choice. That way if you don't like them you can go back to the stock cables.

Pro's of doing it yourself is the variety of colours available, time consuming yes but i think there's alot of sattisfaction to be had from it aswell.

Pre-made cables are expensive and colour options are far more limited
