can be bought at hardware stores like ace hardware....but i dont recommend using this...coz u need to buy by size. i recommend using cable tie base..

like this (the black color thing)

at least with this.. u can use big cables or small cables doesnt matter... this also can get at hardware stores

this is not a spiral tube...looks more like a U-channel to me. this is used to cover up sharp edges in a casing. here cannot buy tongue.gif

but if u want spiral tube, again, ace hardware has them...

thats the problem la....people who post ... saying that theyre gonna post pictures later....

usually end up not posting at all and the "reserved" post ends up being junk and useless doh.gif not only here...but other sections as well....

seriously.... if u wanna post pictures, dont post just to tell us ur gonna post the pictures later... only post when u actually have pictures to post.

dont twirl ur sata cable......does nothing for cable management except making it look worse...

eh????? what accident?

QUOTE(owikh84 @ Oct 4 2008, 08:43 AM)
Length will be a resistant for data transfer. It is not recommended.
For me 20cm is more than enuf as the distance between mobo sata ports to ur sata devices is not that long.  nod.gif
*
have u seen our cases??? like mfcm's case, my A10 is BTX'ed....so its really far between port and HDD.....

as for the resistance thing....ive used both short and long cables.... from 10cm to the ones that come with the mobo to 1 meter long.....

no difference wink.gif

every type of cable has their limits when it comes to length....guess 1 meter is still within a sata cable's limit...

pc power and cooling is one of the best power supply you will ever find in the market now... want to know why?

read this and u will know why laugh.gif  laugh.gif

although that link u posted does have a few good points... but some of it are a lil stupid imho...especially the part where they were comparing their own PSU with 2 others... not same wattage and they wanna compare (and theirs being the highest wattage)...

dont get me wrong....PCP&C are damn good PSUs....

but that website is more like PCP&C self promoting and praising themselves.... and like the old saying goes.... "Self praise is NO praise"

Your Cable Managment Will Improve Alot If You Change The IDE Rom Drive To Sata Rom Drive smile.gif

*
i disagree.... SATA cables do NOT improve cable management in my expeirence... u can still use IDE Ribbon cables and still get damn good cable management... ive used ribbon cables before and my ribbon cables were barely visible in my old case...

SATA only eases the cable management process... not improve it. at the end of the day it still comes down to the hands that are doing it.
