Cable Combs
The Spectre 3.0 integrated cable management has three different configurations which is why
we have not pre-installed the cable combs. The only variable for the three configurations is how
the EPS is routed. The cable combs are designed for 4mm sleeved cables. The cables clip in. It is
best to push slightly to one side when clipping the cables in, instead of pushing straight down. Do
the same when removing cable strands. Begin by plugging the cables into your Motherboard, set
your lengths and then start clipping the cables into the combs ending at the PSU. The PCIE cables
route directly down into the PSU shroud, they do not have routes integrated into the Distribution
Plate.
Included Cable Combs:
•
11x 12pin (2 are spares)
•
6x 20pin (2 are spares)
•
4x SATA Data (2 are spares)
The Cable Combs have an adhesive backing, remove the red cover, and then install them into
position. They install onto the rear of the motherboard tray. The 12 and 20pin Cable Combs have
a centering section on each side which fits inside of holes on the motherboard tray. The holes on
the motherboard tray along with the diagrams below show where the Cable Combs need to be
installed. The SATA Data cable combs can fit up to 4x SATA Data cables. Once the Cable Combs
are adhered, they can be difficult to remove so make sure you have selected your cable routing
correctly before you begin. Two spares of each Cable Combs are included in case you break any
during your build.
Configuration 1: EPS from left side Motherboard.
See the diagram below for the installation positions of the cable combs. This configuration uses
9x 12pin Cable Combs.
