I'd like to know what % of your total budget do you put in cables for your rig ?Is it usually 10-15 % ?

I also happen to like both designers, watched a number of videos on youtube. Read about them too. If a designer makes no impression on me - I don't even consider his equipment, especially at this level.

I suggest that you buy cheap and get used to the system. Then upgrade if and only if someone can demonstrate a positive difference in your system, at your leisure.
