Cable changing

Phil2008 · 28 Dec 2012 at 12:54

Ive just received all my white cables today, so I am going to have a fun afternoon redoing my pc. Atm my pc looks like this.

Im going to be replacing all the cables with these, and I will show you the end results in a few hours.

What do you think of it so far guys? Ive turned the hdds around to show off the cables(not sure about that) and Ive flipped the psu upside down because I think the fan is much nicer then looking at a black lump of plastic

I should have it all done tomorrow,, I can only go slow at these sort of jobs as I have cerebral palsy

I had to see what it looked like with gfx card in before going to bed, and yeah you might be right about the hdds. But someone on here had the hdds turned around the other way, and I thought it didnt look too bad, plus it means a hdd change is nice and easy.

Try and put the cables through the grommet above the cards instead of below, you really want them to be as short as possible.

God that took some doing but its now finished, will prob be tweaking it in the next few weeks or so.

I left the hdds as they are, because I couldnt be bothered with all those cables a 2nd time around, plus I had a job to get the side panel on, without the adding of more cables to that side.

I have slightly tweaked the inside of my case by removing hdd trays that are not in use, got rid of the cables behind the hdd cage and manage to split the NZXT 4 SATA cables up, as I couldn't make them tidy in the sleeve, plus now I have a white sata cable for the DVD drive.

Does it look better without the hdd trays in? Also before you say it, no I haven't turned the hdds around cos I think looks good with the hdd cables on show, and it makes things so much easier to change/add hdds. Plus when I get a side panel with a window you wont see the hdds, so no problem.

Tweaked the inside of my pc some more guys and finally received the windowed side panel today aswel.

Im Glad you done something with the mobo cable, it was annoying me that it wasn't hidden and just ran over the top.

Looks very tasty now though.

Hehe, thanks. The motherboard cable wasn't long enough to go behind the tray before, thats why I had it snaking its way to the top of the board
