Hey guys. I might have mentioned it already, but when I update the GPU in my system, I am planning on making some custom cables since, even though my PSU is modular so I can exclude extraneous cables, the cables I do need are quite long, and with the PSU right next to the motherboard, I have a rats nest carefully bunched up next to the heat sink.

While I am no stranger to working with wiring, I haven't actually done so in a while.
Where's a good place to get both the tools and supplies I need for such a project in one place?

When did MDPC open again? I remember them closing their doors, and I had thought Lutro0 suffered the same fate since I hadn't seen anything about them around.

Earlier this year, he started by doing large orders to other distributors only, it used to be just a few, I don't think he has to worry about starting his own shop anymore.

Anyone happen to remember what wire gauge I need. I don't see the MDPC shops selling wire, and the hardware store has so many types.

18awg is usually adequate. 16awg for longer runs and/or high current.
