IDE Round Cables

[mordeth]

Was just wondering if anyone recommends IDE Round Cables? I was looking at the Antec A26 ATA-133 Cobra Cable. Should I just stick with the normal cables? Do you think I should get another brand? Where do you buy cables from?

Unless your case is on display and has windows I wouldn't bother. You're not going to get a significant cooling difference w/rounded cables, they just look neat.

If you want to buy some rounded cables, check out svc.com. They have some pretty good prices.

If you are actually find yourself needing to buy IDE cables then go for round, the price difference is not that huge now, over here it's like £0.30 + VAT for a standard floppy cable or £1.00 + VAT for rounded. They on the whole tend to be higher quality.
