Overview
CableMod is a manufacturer of custom cables for personal computer power supplies and internal system wiring. Established in 2014, the company's primary offering revolves around enhancing PC aesthetics and improving cable management through custom-sleeved cables and extensions. Their product range supports direct PSU connections for a variety of power supply manufacturers and models, in addition to universal cable extensions that are compatible with any standard PSU cable.
The core proposition of CableMod products is the ability to customize cable length, color, and sleeving material. This allows PC builders to match cables to specific build themes, improve airflow by reducing cable clutter, and achieve cleaner interior layouts. Custom cables directly replace stock PSU cables, while extensions add length and aesthetic appeal to existing cables. The company utilizes materials such as ModMesh and ModFlex for their sleeving, offering different textures and flexibility characteristics. Compatibility extends across major PSU brands including Corsair, Seasonic, EVGA, and Cooler Master, among others, with specific cable series designed for direct replacement.
CableMod also addresses evolving power delivery standards, notably with their 12VHPWR cables designed for NVIDIA's RTX 40 Series graphics cards. These cables aim to provide a direct, single-cable solution for high-power GPUs, reducing the need for multiple adapter cables often bundled with graphics cards. Their configurator tool on the official website allows users to select their exact PSU model and specify cable types, lengths, and colors before ordering. This level of customization positions CableMod as a solution for PC enthusiasts, custom builders, and individuals prioritizing the visual and organizational aspects of their computer hardware.
The decision to invest in custom cables often stems from a desire to achieve a professional finish in a build, particularly in systems with tempered glass panels or open case designs where internal components are visible. While stock PSU cables are functional, they frequently lack consistent sleeving, are often stiff, and may not be optimally sized for specific case layouts, which can complicate routing and detract from visual appeal. CableMod seeks to address these challenges by providing purpose-built, aesthetically consistent alternatives.
Key features
- Custom PSU Cables: Direct replacement cables for specific power supply models, eliminating the need for extensions. These are designed to be compatible with a range of modular and semi-modular PSUs from various manufacturers via their configurator.
- Cable Extensions: Universal extensions that plug into existing PSU cables, offering aesthetic improvements and additional length without replacing the original cables.
- ModMesh & ModFlex Sleeving: Two primary sleeving types. ModMesh features a tighter weave for a more rigid, defined look, while ModFlex offers greater flexibility for easier routing and a softer aesthetic.
- 12VHPWR Cables: Dedicated cables for NVIDIA RTX 40 Series GPUs, providing a direct connection to the PSU to deliver power without using the multi-adapter cables typically included with graphics cards.
- Wide Color and Length Customization: Users can select specific colors for individual wires within a cable and choose custom lengths to match their PC case dimensions and desired cable routing paths.
- Cable Combs: Included with most custom cable sets, these accessories help maintain parallel alignment of individual wires within a cable, further contributing to a clean and organized appearance.
- Configurator Tool: An online tool allowing users to select their PSU, choose specific cables, customize colors and lengths, and visualize the final product before purchase.
Pricing
CableMod's pricing structure is dynamic, varying significantly based on the type of cable, chosen length, sleeving material (ModMesh vs. ModFlex), and the specific customization options selected through their online configurator. Consequently, there is no fixed price list for complete sets; each order is custom-quoted.

|---|---|---|
| Individual Custom PSU Cables (e.g., 24-pin ATX) | $29.90 - $59.90 | Price varies by length, sleeving material, and connector type. |
| Individual Cable Extensions (e.g., 8-pin PCIe) | $14.90 - $29.90 | Generally less expensive than direct replacement cables. |
| Complete Cable Kits (Custom PSU Cables) | $99.90 - $249.90+ | Includes essential cables like 24-pin ATX, 8-pin PCIe, and 8-pin EPS. Price depends heavily on customization and number of cables. |
| 12VHPWR Direct Cables | $39.90 - $79.90 | Specific pricing for high-power GPU cables. |
| ModFlex vs. ModMesh Sleeving | Minor price difference | ModMesh may be slightly higher due to material and manufacturing complexity. |

Getting started
Getting started with CableMod involves selecting the appropriate cables for a specific PC build. The primary method for procurement is through their online configurator.
- Identify your PSU: Determine the exact make and model of your power supply unit. This is crucial for ordering direct replacement cables.
- Access the Configurator: Navigate to the CableMod Configurator on their website.
- Select PSU (if applicable): If you intend to purchase direct replacement cables, select your PSU manufacturer and model from the dropdown lists.
- Choose Cable Type: Decide whether you need direct replacement cables or universal extensions. CableMod's configurator will guide you through available options for your selected PSU.
- Customize: Select the specific cables required (e.g., 24-pin ATX, 8-pin PCIe, 12VHPWR, SATA power), desired lengths, sleeving material (ModMesh or ModFlex), and individual wire colors.
- Review and Order: Verify your selections in the configurator, which will display a visual representation and an estimated price. Proceed to add to cart and complete the purchase.
For users who prefer to start with a predefined set, CableMod also offers pre-configured cable kits for popular PSUs, which can be a simpler entry point before delving into full customization.
