That's a lot of sleeving. The only way to figure out how much you need with all that you listed is to measure each cable. I can't even guess how much sleeving you will need. I know its a pain but measuring is the only way to know.

MDPC-X is quality sleeving and the price reflects that. The nylon you linked will look great but its expensive compared to paracord (which is basically the exact same thing). Paracord is much cheaper (also comes in a couple dozen colors) and I think it looks nicer than MDPC-X (though it is more difficult to work with). It can be had for $7 per 100 ft. You can read up on sleeving with paracord here: http://www.overclock.net/case-mods-general-discussion/775454-cheap-beautiful-sleeving-guide-now-offering.html

You could actually go to review or manufacturer sites for cable lenghts. Review sites such as Jonny-guru.
