See how to create an extension cable to pull the logic board outside the Mac's chassis. I close with a special announcement! And yes, the stock SE & SE/30 power cable really is comprised of rather thin 22AWG stranded wire!

🛠️ THINGS TO BUY...
SILVERSTONE 24-pin Male-to-Female ATX Cable:
• Black Version Amazon USA: amzn.to/3G1TKkE
• White Version Amazon USA: amzn.to/2Z3q6KT
• Black Version Amazon Japan: tinyurl.com/8rdjzrb9
• White Version Amazon Japan: tinyurl.com/3xzhyzua
• Silverstone Website: silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=371&area=en
(Even their official specifications say it is 16AWG wire.)

NOTE #1: Some ATX cable listings say the length is 30cm and others 35cm. This is very confusing, but the truth is the wires on the SilverStone ATX cables are 30cm, and if you add the connectors at either end, it's 35cm tip-to-tip. That's a nice length. You can go longer if you want the motherboard even further from your chassis, but the longer the wires, the more resistance and the greater potential for electrical noise. Even so, I doubt it will be an issue if you decide go with 45 or 50cm lengths (for the extension cable) with 18AWG wire, which is in addition to the length of your stock power cable.

NOTE #2: Despite being advertised as a 16AWG cable, as you saw in my video, the SilverStone ATX cable is in fact printed with 18AWG, and the diameter of the wire seems to show that 18AWG is correct. SilverStone covered it with a braid and hoped no one would notice! Very naughty!

WIRE KIT (to extend Speaker wires)
• Wire Kit (Amazon USA): amzn.to/2ZaWOKi
• Wire Kit (Amazon Japan): tinyurl.com/fstb23dx

DEOXIT D5 Contact Cleaner (great for old, oxidized connectors)
• Amazon USA: amzn.to/3f92aeN
• Amazon Japan: tinyurl.com/7hckwrv5

NOTE: I highly recommend this cleaner even when not extending your main power cable. If you see any kind of greenish color on your contacts, you probably will have high resistance connections and lower output voltages as a result. DeOxit D5 cleans all that gunk off your connectors quickly and easily, albeit expensively!
