Dell Perc would be a great choise, its a bit troublesome to get working on some chipsets though, but you just have to try it out, works in most cases

Hoorah!
My cable/tube sleeving has arrived - finally!
I will be using Nylon Multifilament sleeving - built to military grade specifications.
The 'wire harness' coming out the back of this machine will be manages with DuraWrap sleeving - made from ballistic nylon.
Here's my order, 2.5"ID durawrap, nylon multifilament sleeving (75' - 225' spools), and 4:1 heatshrink (25' - 50' spools).
Some crappy pics showing off the goods:
The quality of this stuff is incredible... and it's very hard to cut (w/o a hot knife). I'm positive that it will definitely suit the build.
I forgot to order 1" heatshrink (but compensated by adding it to my PerformancePCs order which should be here any day) so I can't jump right in and start sleeving my tubes just yet. But I am going to start sleeving the items that I can.
Thanks for reading, more coming soon.
$500 in just heatshrink and sleeving...now THATS dedication :bowdown:
I did a couple of short sleevings tests:
I sleeved the tubing and the anti-kink coils... the sleeving WORTH EVERY PENNY in my mind. The look turned out fantastic.

I'd like to hear your opinions on the look.
Thanks
the one on the bottom in the first pic looks the best, the other has odd wrinkles in it, but looks great IMHO :up:

I must admit, that sleaving is the bomb! However, are the anti kink coils absolutly necessary? They do make it look bumpy. Have you tried to see what it would look like with the Coil on the outside of the sleaving? Maybe the coils could be a different accent color? Copper maybe?
Just a suggestion. :)
