#Thermaltake pump molex connector mod

With the ubiquitous nature of tempered glass and open chassis cases plus the ever increasing popularity of water-cooling, one component has a habit of being left out of the loop (I do apologise): the pump. I do this in the majority of mods that I do it's simply a matter of matching the Molex power wires to those of your power supply's peripheral cables, but we'll be focusing solely on appearance.

This is entirely an aesthetic mod for the most part, but you could add some functionality too by replacing the Molex connector and hooking the pump up directly to the PSU.

In this guide we'll be looking at sleeving a D5 pump so that it's just that bit more aesthetically pleasing. If you haven't sleeved your own cables before, be sure to check out our written beginner's guide on the topic too. Naturally, once you have your mainstay cables sleeved, it makes sense that you might want to have your peripheral cables matching them, and that means sleeving your fans, other accessories, and, if you have a water-cooling setup, your pump!Ī while back we covered a handy mod that makes sleeving fans simpler by making them pseudo-modular, and that mod allows you to sleeve the extension cable very easily. That said, it's extremely popular to have your cables neatened and colour matched to your build either through the use of sleeved extensions or whole PSU kits. Sleeving your cables has become very much a modding staple, or at least it was until services such as Cablemod became widely available.
