Took the plunge, SB build ordered

Cable management isn't as easy as it's made out to be. Here's a pic of mine after hours of re-routing hassle. It's no where near as good as I would like but it maybe give you a baseline. I recently installed the new GPU so the cables at the bottom can be tucked in, forgot to do that before the pic.

Your PSU is modular so you shouldn't have much hassle.

The only real problematic one is the CPU ATX, which just isn't long enough to route. I haven't got round to getting an extension yet.

^ You could route the EPS12v under the motherboard or along the side back panel, under he graphics card. The card PCB normally has a cut out but otherwise that's a great job.. I spend hours scratching my head over cable tidying..
 
How's the new Antec 100?

It is a solid case with good ventilation and it was worth every penny.

The only Issues I have with it are:

1) It would be better if you could mount the HDDs sideways

2) On my motherboard the SATA ports are behind the graphics card so you need to plug in your cables before you fit the GPU.

Ive still to get a game running (due to work) to push the limits but overall im happy with what I got and once I get a chance to push the limit ill post my findings.

Unfortunately it doesn't fit along the side back panel under the Graphics card. It's a stupidly short cable, that's it at it's full extension straight across. It would be a tight squeeze aswell going under the mobo, but after fitting it all in and that was one of the last cables I connected. I don't have a clear side panel anyway and for all the difference.

Thank's for the tips all the same :)
