Adultery Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Ok, so I have an audio hub (headphone/mic/line-in) that I want to wire into the cab. This hub plugs directly into the mobo. The problem is that the wires aren't long enough to reach the spot I plan to put it. So the question is this:What gauge wire do standard computers use for wiring stuff? I plan to cut and solder extensions in, and want to do it right the first time. The wire gauge is comparable to what's bundled inside a standard phone cable.Anyone know?

I found this site doing my usual "Googling" about. While this is primarily for adding front access to the usual ports via an empty drive bay, it could probably be easily adapted to your needs without having to hack and solder your existing connections.

Adultery Posted July 18, 2011 Author Share Posted July 18, 2011 Ohhhh man! This is GREAT! Exactly what I was looking for!!I love how configurable this thing is! Putting a panel in front of the cab (or maybe on the side, haven't decided yet) with the internal connectors: 2 USB ports, an eSATA port, line-in, headphones, mic, PS/2, and L/R RCA outs!! Whoever invented this is a friggin GENIOUS! It even comes in black with a flip down cover!Ordering this first thing tomorrow!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
