In before Zorlok with his smoke and mirrors cable management.
@ Monkey, We have the same mobo! Mines cramped, I need a new case. I plan on redoing it soon though. [IMG]http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/1150/004eos.jpg[/IMG]
For someone looking for basic cable management (Power cables which power my fans and LEDs) what would you guys recommend?
Here was my attempt, sorry for the blurriness. [img]http://veers32.net/imgh/img/photo31.jpg[/img]
Where the crap is all the crap? Someone should make a guide on this. Btw, I've got like a little plastic vent, that goes from the cpu, to the outside of the case, should I remove that?

My case unfortunately doesn't have access to that part without some cutting.

[QUOTE=G@merGeek;19576198]For someone looking for basic cable management (Power cables which power my fans and LEDs) what would you guys recommend?[/QUOTE] It's quite simple, route them through the holes in the mobo tray. If there's not holes in it, it's not a bad idea to make your own holes as long as you're not dumb enough to cut holes in the side panel.
[QUOTE=Dr Egg;19577732]what cooler is that?[/QUOTE] [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186134]This one[/url], not a bad cooler if I do say so myself.

[IMG]http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c82/Jjlugnut/DSCF1035.jpg[/IMG] I <3 my case, I need to paint my PSU and sleeve my cables still though. There are quite a few places where I can hide more cables.

Copied from the Pictures of Your Computer thread: [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/1-10-10_1.jpg[/img] It's the best I can do without cutting holes in the motherboard tray... which I would do, but I have no tools :saddowns: [editline]04:39PM[/editline] Horrifying comparison shot from 6 months ago: [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/comp3_small.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=Veers;19579187]I wish my case was as cable friendly as yours =\[/QUOTE] You get what you pay for. I need more stuff to put in it though, it looks so empty. I need to do an upgrade and then do some water cooling, fill up that top 3x120mm spot on top with a radiator to go with those fans. Did Zorlok use vinyl dye on his cables? I saw some one else do it and it looks really nice and is a lot less time consuming then sleeving.
