Review on CableMod AIO Sleeving Kit Series 1 for Corsair Hydro Gen 2 - Black - CM-ASK-S1KR-R by Richard Counts

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It took a little more prototyping time.

As much as I was hoping this would be a good product to spruce up my H100i V2, unfortunately it isn't. I think this will be a comeback for me. You will receive several items in the box: two sleeves and 4 sets of end caps. The sleeves are ok - they hold up securely, look decent and twist to hide the back seam. Installation took less than a minute. Each set of terminations comes in two halves with a puzzle closure pattern connecting them together. This sounds good in theory, but this is where the problems start. The puzzle has a 3D block pattern (the pattern has a height element with overlapping layers) so it's impossible to connect them together without bending the plastic. It's annoying and took a lot of trying, but in the end it's POSSIBLE as the plastic is pretty soft. Then we come to the second problem: The inner diameter of the closures is too small to close! One side will be blocked and the other side will be a few millimeters shorter. This product took a little longer to develop, but given the state of the market I don't think it will be.
