 I've got a few questions about em:

-How beneficial are these in an air-cooled rig?

-Do they really help keep the PC cooler?

-How easy it is to access cables already sorted within them, does it become a hassle if you need to change some components to remove their cables?

Basically I'm just worried that this is a $25 that really isn't worth it and is more an aesthetically pleasing aspect/ attempt to profit by DS (not that I have anything really against that, every company needs to make their gains where possible + I love the service and prices I've seen).

I fully expect every component and service offered is in the attempt to profit Tongue.
 
I would say this: If asthetics truly mean nothing to you, and you were looking at wiring purely on the basis of how much it enhances you cooling, I think it would be hard to make a case for the wiring job being worth $25.
 
If the question is "Is the wiring worth $25 to enhance my system's cooling?" I would say no.
 
Having said that, if the question were instead "Is $25 a reasonable price to charge for the quality and nature of the work provided?" The answer would be a resounding yes. I'm happy I opted for the wiring job. It's an amazing bit of craftsmanship that you really have to see in person to appreciate fully. This may be one reason other boutique builders charge upwards of $100 for the same type of option.

Can't say it any better than Tyler Clap It help a little with the airflow and it will make your system looks cleaner but that's about it. If you already has quite a few of the round cables, i would just go with the regular cable. You can always replace them with your own when your system arrives.
