Question Is it worth it?

Hi,

Do you think it's actually worth sleeving your wires?

Worth getting these?

Thanks

Hmm, Yeah, it would look good.
It'd increase air flow wouldn't it?

Depends how your wires are right now. If they are already pretty organized, then sleeving won't do anything.

Well, They aren't too bad, they're all cable tied and stuff so they aren't really in the way...

It does reduce the clutter, but I service a few business' computers and oh man, that would really make me angry if I had to pull those off to get to the wires.

They might, but it wouldn't make much of a difference.

Lol, Yeah, I get it would make you angry to have to pull them off! I think you'd have to cut them off unless they were cable tied on...

Yeah, I supose, I may leave it... only if I have real problems or have some money and I'm really bored
