Bruceleeon Posted September 8, 2002 Report Share Posted September 8, 2002 Nice article, I have used the tubing from fish tank airators to accomplish the same thing.

[COD]1HellUVAShot Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 Sure would complement my Acrylic window case. I have it lit up inside pretty well, but would look better if I got rid of all the tie straps. Silent Souls Leave .308 Holes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimBowy Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 I tried using split-wire-loom on my case before but it just made things look ugly. I have so many wires in my case I don't think it will ever look "good. Question = Oh... to post pics do I need to upload to a website?

Rbreb13 Posted August 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 For pics yeah you do have to have youtr own space. We don't have the capacity right now maybe in the future we can accomodate. :cry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBowy Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 I'll get some space and upload some pics, I wanna get some suggestions from you guys. I need some moral support because I really don't feel my case looks very good at all. I'll let you guys be the judge. :?: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsgolfman Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 One thing that I learned from Rb is te use of colored electrical tape. It's inexpensive, easy to do and can make your wiring look pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PC-HAngover Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 Nice article. Thinking about it, I need to tidy up my case! :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mAnChO Posted August 25, 2003 Report Share Posted August 25, 2003 With my mid tower case and way too many wires Ill be looking into purchasing some of that hose to tidy up my case as well. Ive hear of some people actually opening the Power Suppy and getting rid of uneeded wires anybody heard of this? Probably would void the warranty but after so long the warranty is useless anyway.

PC-HAngover Posted August 25, 2003 Report Share Posted August 25, 2003 All you need to do is chop the wires off from outside the psu case- then heatshrink them. I am personally going to sleeve everything and then tie wrap them underneath my psu. It will hide them very nicely. You would have to see my case to understand.

mAnChO Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 Should be suffice, and plus it wont void the warranty. Do they specifically make heatshrink for computer applications? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC-HAngover Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 All heatshrink is made for electronic wiring... and a computer is a lot of electronic wiring. I recommend against buying heatshrink from Radioshack- aka the crapshack. They have the stiffest heatshrink I have ever tried to melt! It is some really cheap stuff!

mAnChO Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 Sounds good.. thanks PC Hangover Ill have to give it a go. Hopefully it will improve my temps by a degree or two. :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC-HAngover Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 Well if your case is full of wires then yah it definitely would drop your temps a little! Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
