How about try using the motherboard tray.

ATX motherboard covers all of the holes, so they are useless unless you havea mATX

Wireless cables.
This thread makes me realize I need to buy a case with better cable management options.
I'd post mine, but i'm too lazy to move the wires outside the case to get to the ones that are inside the case.

I wish I had a modular PSU.

It's annoying when your only stata power cable is too short.

I have a thermaltake armour + I just shove the excess cables into the spare disc drive bays. Its alright but I'm saving for a modular supply.
My case's a regulare Mid-ATX, so there's no space at all.
2 hours of work, and I was capable of doing this:
[img]http://imgkk.com/i/jtBO7H.jpg[/img]
3 hard drives, a GTX275, a Zalman X10 Extreme, a diskette reader (for nostalgic times), an old CD-ROM reader/writer (for music), and a DVD Burner (Won't read legit music cd's for some reason)
There's no back area on this case, so I've had to jam it all up there.

Sucks, but allows 2 fans to blow air at my hard drives, and directly into and below my graphic card.

Same here, in fact I just bought a modular PSU.

Just took it on my phone, doesn't look to hot but I just ordered a 4870 and a new motherboard and processor, so I'll do a nice cable manage job when all that happens.

My case is a very small microATX.
I had to cut out the floppy drive bay brackets to fit my 8800GT in.
All cables are shoved into the unused CD drive bay.

Who is space at all? I think QUOTE your case is more than that. Why? I think there are a few exceptions. Tell me a story.

Yeah probably should go with the modular power supply.

Ah, from the bottom it looked like third party ones I've seen.
What's with the people rotating their CPU coolers all crazy?
Isn't it supposed to blow the air [U]to the back of the case[/U], or am I missing something inportant here?

Depends on where your intake/exhaust is.
If your intake is at the top, point the cooler down. Intake bottom, point cooler up. Intake front, point back. Intake back, point front.

It's supposed to carry air away from the heatsink.

Or It's supposed to carry air through the heatsink.

Haha, I noticed that too. Wish they just made the top flat, I think it'll look better that way.

Mine looks nearly identical, maybe a bit cleaner(the back looks just as bad ;) ). For those asking, if you want a good case for wire managment, and really good airflow all for a great price, the haf 932 is for you. There are a few other cases, but they aren't as bang for your buck as the haf 932 is. If you don't want such a big case though, you can always go for the haf 922, but the cooling might not be as good and you might not have as much for new video cards.
EDIT: I have an extra fan on the bottom myself, and my hard drives in the same exact spots. Shame you have different fans on time though(and a different heatsink for your cpu), we could have been computer brothers :D.
