Changing up my PC while I have free time during this ** and I realised that my existing PSU cables that are non modular are a little short and ugly (ketchup and mustard). I don't have much experience with regards to these but I'm looking for recommendations for extensions that are both functional and looks better than the stock. Better if they're relatively easy to get especially with all these measures in place. Thanks!

The extensions are generally only for the following: -

1. 24pin (20+4) Motherboard
2. 8pin (4+4) CPU
3. 2 X 8(6+2)Pin PCIE GPU

These will make your ketchup and mustard cables out of view so it is highly recommended. There are sellers on Carousell selling tho I've not had any experience buying from them. I plan on making my own once this ** is over.

Motherboard CPU and GPU like hafiz mentioned above

GPU one is easy to find. Not sure about the motherboard one. It may be easier to find new power supply with longer cables connection.

You have a point here,... since the current PSU is non-modular I am to assume it's an entry level one. By buying a modular PSU he will end up with most likely black cables which make them more invisible but still not that great!

The extensions will come at a cost but IF you like the looks and your current PSU is sufficient then I would do extensions because it will add some nice colour and the cable combs do make the cables look neat and tidy!

I am very eager to make my own custom cables but cant get parts right now so this will be revisited once ** is over.

This is what I am using.

It will look like this. (The pic is a bit outdated as I've since tidied up the cabling further but should be clear enough.)
