Did alittle sleeving tonight.
Six panaflo 120mm fans.
Tonight I decided that I'd mod the X-fi i/o flat ribbon cable. This cable is what is needed to connect the front panel connections and remote to the soundcard itself. Obviously this cable is very ugly and very hard to work with.
You'll need a very sharp razor.
Cut down in between the wires of your ribbon cable. It is not necessary to separate out every individual wire of your ribbon cable, but you can if you want to. I decirded to go by 3’s to make the separating effect.
I found it was best to cut down the ribbon cable about an inch and then gently pull the wires the rest of the way. Gently pull and separate the wires the length of the ribbon cable.
After separating every three wires we get something like this.
Sleeving installed.
All Finished. Looks alot better and it's alot easier to work with.
And of course I did recieve my new Sound Blaster X-Fi Platinum Fatal1ty Champion Series Sound Card
