Hey guys, I've always been pretty fussy about cables inside my computer, but this case I've got now makes things quite hard cos the obvious places I want to rout things don't have clearance for anything thicker than a fan cable...

I think it looks "ok" in there, but the big mass of sata data/power cables behind the HDD's winds me up a bit as it's hindering the airflow from the fan

Any suggestions for a way of making these damn things more maliable? are there any aftermarket cables that allow greater flexability or anything along those lines...

Cheers guys.
 
Hard to see from where, but couldn't that 24pin power come up from behind the case, I am guessing its just hidden by the HDD bays..

Best option is to take the back off the case and see how much cable you can hide behind the motherboard tray thingy.

But as said before doesn't look bad at all.

Also is that cable going near heating going to the front panel audio header, because I think your sound card has a space for it there, might make it a bit neater / better sounding :)
 
Yea. Looks alright to me. Don't think there's much more you can do, unless you switch to a motherboard which the SATA ports are right-angled on the edge of the PCB and/or with a better case.

I thought it is already coming from behind the case...considering the PSU is bottom mounted and with nothing at the front? :confused:
