Looking into some sleeving, and all three of the kits come with the same amounts and thicknesses. The Techflex costs the most, followed by the Vantec, then the Xoxide house brand. Is there that much of a difference in the quality of the braiding material to justify shelling out the extra smackeroonies?

I had the xoxide one and it was just fine, worked great, they give you too much big heatshrink though, but if all the kits are the same then, that doesnt matter.

Much for muchness really, I got a vantec sleeving kit, some extra techflex just in case and some extra smaller heatshrink just in case (which I REALLY needed). The techflex is identical stuff to the vantec sleeving. Feels the same looks the same and stretches the same.

They give you too much of the big stuff and too little of the stuff that you need. What we really need is a real modder to make an online store and actually sell everything that you would really need and at decent prices too, but that will never happen.

I dont remember but it was the medium size one that i needed more of, not the tiny stuff and not the huge stuff. whatever fits for the molexes is what you need the most of
