Cooler Master Elite 130 mod

[OldManGrimm]

My son wanted me to clean up the wiring in his Elite 130...it was overheating because of wires getting caught in the CPU cooler. I might have gotten a little carried away with the job...

Thought you guys might appreciate the results.

Great job!

I really want to modify my cables now but I don't have any of the tools and only a semi-modular PSU.

Thanks! I've tried shortening and sleeving a semi-modular PSU, but it's nerve-wracking. If you screw up a cable you're making from scratch, you just start over. Mess up one of those, though, different story altogether. I just make it a point now to only buy fully-modular, if at all possible.

Thats a clean build.

Good job on modding. You have the skill

Wow, amazing transformation.
How difficult is it to do your own cables?

It's not that hard. If you're like me, the first few you do will suck, but it gets easier with practice. I point everyone to Lutro0's channel on YouTube, he does great tutorials on cables and sleeving.

You're one of those "cool dads" aren't you?!

The mods look great, that Metal Gear Solid backplate is super cool, and the cables look good with everything else.
