Good stuff love the case hence my planned switch from the prodigy to the 250d over the coming days.

I'm just hoping I can pull off better wire management though! (No offence I just have OCD when it comes to wires)

The cable management is the best I can do with the length of the io cables and the layout of the motherboard but I do see your point

Could you not have put the cooler on the other way up so there wasn't so much bend in the tubes? Doesn't look fatal but if it's doable I definitely would.

I could however there is no kink in the pipe it is just curved quite a lot and it takes a lot of effort to get the water cooler in and out with all the cables routed above it. But when I get new fans (quiet edition) I will think about changing the orientation
