You're going to have to do a lot more research.

Every PSU is different, even within a single brand. You're going to need to find the wiring diagram for the specific model you have, or make your own diagram very very carefully. You're going to need to learn which tools you'll need for measuring (voltages and length), crimping and removing pins, and cutting. You'll have to buy ample supplies and cut your cable and sleeving and purchase the proper empty female and male connectors for your PSU. There is a lot of practice and knowledge that goes into making a sleeved cable set that works right and doesn't fry something, let alone getting it to look good.

I can only recommend doing what I did. Start with a pre made set from CableMods, order your supplies from them as well and then try to copy their set. A few sets of cables in and I still can't get the same result as theirs.
