I'll have a look at rerouting the stray 8-pin this weekend, other than that I think it's done. Behind the motherboard isn't pretty but I guess that doesn't count.

Very nice build and great for a first time. You can be proud of yourself for that.
If you get a rainy Sunday it'd be well worth sorting the wiring though. lots of little flashes of colour from thin fan wires and the like can really spoilt the overall effect.
Trust me, it can look better and all it takes is a few cans of beer, some black tape, some cable ties and a little planning.

Really nice looking build G_Dubs. I was quite pleased with the way mine looked until I saw yours.
I have wondered how people hid the fly wires from the fans, I guess you just tape them around the outside of the fan itself.
I have managed to reroute that stray 8-pin lead around behind the motherboard now which make a big difference.
My biggest gripe is the power leads to the graphics card. Not sure what to do abut these.
Also there's the USB 3 port just above the PSU, that cable looks ugly too,
