    Spiral Wrap Overload

    Got about 25 metres of the stuff from RS, so I've totally stripped out my PC-60 to prepare it for an NF7-S v2.0 (cleaned, drilled, and replaced fans. No window as you wouldn't see it. Going to add a Coolermaster Cooldrive 4 at some point when they are a bit cheaper than they are at the moment.







    All pretty standard stuff, but I'm taking a bit more time over it to get it all neat.

    And if you were wondering where my PC is at the moment:



    Next up is the front panel connectors .

    3mm and 8mm stuff then from Maplins? sounds good.

    And that'll cover the variety of wires in the case?

    Braiding isn't worth the hassle IMO. I did it once and it took forever. Spiral wrap also give the cable mechanical protection.

    braiding is well worth it, so it may take longer but the finish is so much better than Spiral wrap
