Sticky Request!!!!


Needs links where we can buy the sleeving and accessories.

Here ya go: ;)

Molex pins at Newark.com, part # 39000038 and 39000040
Connectors from AC Ryan, dist. through frozencpu/performance-pcs
Misc. tools from Home Depot/Lowes

I agree with you but I know around here MDPC sleeving is EXPENSIVE! Don't make me re-sleeve my Corsair again J/K

:D

simply amazing crysis,i think im going to give it a shot sometime in the future

Thanks! Ot's long, boring work but the result is completely worth it! :)

Nice and easy guide. I might try this but I have to add that this looks like a daunting challenge.

Thanks, after you do it enough it becomes part of your subconscious... (it's that brain-numbing);)

All I can say is his work is amazing. I had talked with Crys1s a bit and we came to a quick agreement, and here is what he produced for me, a completley one off 24-pin extension for my GA P55 UD7. Have a look....

Great guide!

Sneeky, that 24pin looks very nice... I think you should get some PCI-E extensions in blue and white too. Would definitely flow well.

have to spring for water first;)

After I get a look at all that inside, I will definately be back for more of Crys1s' work. Very, very pleased. Shipped very well for something so unbreakable (loved it), got here in like 3-4 days from the time I dropped payment (what's not to love?), and it looks TEH AWESOME! (nuff said).:D
