Cable Sleeving Guide..?

the 3rd link is borken, u can try with this link too..
http://www.pcmoddingmy.com/content.php?article.32

As from the tips that I've got from SRI COMPUTERS (level 2) promoter, we can use some pipes (PVC pipe, size depends on how big the plug), make it like 'driver' to put the sleeving unit passthrough the plug. Quite reasonable for somebody that not so sure or afraid to remove the plug...

not so hard la if remove the plug... just take note of the colour position *also if buy vantec's easy grip molex got guide to place molex cables

ok. i'm gonna ask this for once and for all... so to all da pros, pls explain.

1. what is CCFL? (is it those long tubes)
2. just say i buy a uv reactive fan, what should i buy to get the effect of uv?
3. if i dun buy anything, what color will the fan be?? white? transparent?
4. what color must the tubes of light be? can it be colored or must it be the uv version?
5. what is the difference between the uv ccfl n the green ccfl tubes?? color? uv effect on the reactive fans??
6. what is the difference between standard uv fan, glossy uv fan with led n ccfl fan?
7. how does uv even work? (do u buy one of them uv sticks, some uv reactive fans n light it up??)
8. why does ccfl tubes come in pairs??
9. what are inveters??
10. just say the tube is green, will the uv reactive fan become green or... what color?
11. for the male molex connecters, how many wires go into the 4 holes? 1 wire each right?? yellow, black, black, red right?
12. just say i have a fan speed controller for 4 fans, does the 4 fans molex'es connect the to the controller or to the psu?

OMG i don't get all of this.. pls explain.... theres alot more to ask other than this... but i want to understand this first...

thanx.

1) yup those long tubes emitting lights
2) u need UV CCFL to get the UV effect
3) it will be wut the fan color is, just that it wont glow without an UV CCFL.
4) the tubes itself are usually clear transparent plastic. some have strips of color matching the color of the CCFL
5) green CCFL, u get green light. only UV will affect UV reactive fans
6) (let some other reply u on this )
7) wut u ask is correct
8) usually they're sold in pair
9) inverters are used to convert 12V DC to AC, cuz the CCFL uses AC current.
10) the fan will be the original color, just that it wont glow
11) correct
12) fan molexes connect to the controller, and the controller connects to PSU.

hope it helps

THANX man!!!! that reallly helped me understand all i need to know about uv.. a few more questions k?

1. to make the uv reactive fans glow, i MUST have uv ccfl n not colered ccfl?
2. so inverters are a must if i want ccfl?
3. will one molex (from controoler to psu) be enough to supply sufficient power to the 4 fans??

that's about all for now.. again, i wanna say thanx to u for your help.. i really apprecieate it!!

1. of course, like the special security features on our currency, it needs UV light
2. yes, they will come with inverters
3. it's the same source from the same power supply, meaning, if u connect like 10fans thru the same molex also is from the same source

thanx allngap..

1. most of the chapalang fans only come with 1 3-pin connector rite?
2. the 3-pin is to be connected to the mobo rite?
3. is the power for the fan from the mobo?
4. so i plug the 3-pin into the fan controller, n the fan controller has 1 molex to the psu?
5. the 4-pin power supply is called the "molex" rite?
6. just say i have let's say.. a coolermaster dual storm n it comes with 1 molex, 1 control n 1 3-pin. all i need to do is connect the 3-pin to the fan controller n the molex to the psu n that's all??

thanx for all your help ppl...

1. chapalang or not most of them will come with AT LEAST 1 the 3-pin connector
2. the 3-pin connector from the psu are for the fans.while fans' 3-pin connector could be connected straight to the psu, or to the mobo's 3-pin connector.
3. no.it's either straight from the psu or psu-mobo-fan(from psu to the fan via a mobo)
4. yes.and u can figure it out just by looking at it
5. yes,the one u connect it to the harddisk,cd-rom,dvd-rom.google for molex and u'll know it instantly
6.what?.the installation is pretty simple. http://www.hexus.net/content/reviews/revie...XJsX3BhZ2U9Mw==

nvm.. anywayz, thanx man....

n i want to say thanks to everyone whom helped me to understand all bout uv..

thanx guys..

Glad that your questions have been answered, but really, I don't see how this is in the Case Modding section since it's querying hardware rather than querying modification techniques.
