[QUOTE=Sgt Pringles;16283870]It isnt? oh damn[/QUOTE] It's OK, there's a large space behind the HDDs to put the cables.
[QUOTE=betteroffalive;16276242][B]I finally got around to fixing my horrid cable management.[/B] [IMG]http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk156/om_nom_nom/01248466024940000000374276.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE] No you didn't.
[QUOTE=Sgt Pringles;16283748]SO what is the Antec 300 liek for cable management? Im gonna be buying one soon and want to know what the it is like. And how hard is it for cutting a windows into the antec's side panel? I was thinking of doing that, having red fans and 2 red cathodes so it was all lit up red :buddy:[/QUOTE] Yeah, it's not fantastic, but it's not horrible. The only way for cables to get behind the mobo is through the gap behind the HDDs. I'm planning on cutting holes in the mobo tray on mine like User. did so I can hide a heap of cables. I'm actually thinking about putting a window in the side as well. I recently pulled apart 2 scanners, so I've got a couple pieces of glass that are the perfect size.
[QUOTE=User.;16262206]Here's my almost finished case. The window's gone because some thinners dripped onto it accidentally – I'll have another one fitted in there by tomorrow. This is just to show the cable management and the painted black chassis.

[IMG]http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk156/om_nom_nom/01248466024940000000374276.jpg[/IMG] It might not look like much, but trust me, it's a big improvement. Actually now that I look at it, I should have routed that 4pin power cable behind the motherboard tray :doh: I should probably get some zip-ties too.[/QUOTE] [img]http://www.tf2chan.net/dis/src/124659572115.jpg[/img] [editline]12:01PM[/editline] Fix that 24-pin connector. Route it under the video card.

I'll be getting my new computer in a week or two! Can't fucking wait. I've had my current one for 4 years, not a single hardware upgrade :frown:
It has a proper window now. [img]http://files.getdropbox.com/u/790162/pcmod/pco5.jpg[/img]
[QUOTE=mattfinch;16283926]No you didn't.[/QUOTE] Before, it looked similar to [url=http://www.facepunch.com/showpost.php?p=16163599&postcount=536]this[/url] And I only spent like 15 minutes on this. Also I suck. [QUOTE=PrismatexV6;16286252]Fix that 24-pin connector. Route it under the video card.[/QUOTE] I would if it would physically fit.
Under the bit of the graphics card between the PCI-E slot and the case.
[QUOTE=User.;16287397]It has a proper window now. [img]http://files.getdropbox.com/u/790162/pcmod/pco5.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] Looks very badass User.:clint: Is that the 300? How was the sides and frame like when cutting?
Yeah it's a 300. And I don't get that last part... Here's a comparison shot: [img]http://files.getdropbox.com/u/790162/pc/DSC_0142.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=Sgt Pringles;16288743]I mean how hard was it cutting the chassis and the side of the case for thw windows to go in, and for the cables to go through[/QUOTE] I don't know really - fairly easy. For cutting the window cover the outside of the case with masking tape (to prevent scratches), mark out your shape and then make a cut with a dremel for a jigsaw. Just make sure you take your time, you'll get a much cleaner cut then. The internal holes are a bit more difficult, although I did them with a jigsaw as well so that's probably why.

There are open spots for them to be plugged in, I just don't want to fuck something up by doing that.

got fed up with the dirtiness of my case so i cleaned that shit up and got rid of all the coffee stains and most of the dust. also tried to tidy my cables better which didn't work. i didn't think i would be that horrible at cable management, maybe it's just my case? idk
