The factory sleeves really sux that's for sure. I already bought a bunch of sleeves but lazy to deal with it now. And I was shocking.gif when i notice that HD6850 need 2x 6-pin power...
It'a an Aerocool RV9 casing btw, since it is a cheap one, there no hole I can route cables to the rear (there is one right above the PSU, but got blocked by the ATX mobo)... doh.gif

It's not really noticeable messy on normal running anyway (that camera's flash on pic above...)

Yo folks, do you know where can I get lead-free or silver-bearing solders? Normal hardware shops don't sell these, having a tough time to find.

Spent 4 hours sleeving up the 24-pin cables, and 3 hours managing layout & cables rclxub.gif
Guess I should bought 3mm sleeve instead of 2mm for better "covering"? First time doing this, ok-lahhhhhhh...

Sharp eye, yes the cable above the GPU since the fastest SATA port is there instead of bottom.
Now here's the answer for the harddisk:

Now what I want to know is, what is the best sleeve sizes you guys usually use for PSU cable sleeving for best "covering"? I used 2mm for that 24-pin cables and still can see the cable colour...

not thickness. its the weaves. single weaved or triple weaved. the ones u using is single weaved. look for triple weaved. its the best. u cannot see through the sleeve.

Also , don't look for sleeving that can be expandable.They have tiny holes that still let you see through the old cables.
