Looking good there Ro55o, post up again when you've done your cable tidying and like Mr X said consider removing the top drive bay.
I built my Fortress FT01 case yesterday - cable management was harder than I thought it was going to be. However its all up and running so I'm going to tackle the advanced cable management later.
The one problem I have is with the 12v MB supply from the power supply. Everybody looks to have taken it behind the motherboard tray then down from the top fan. My cable doesn't seem long enough for this.
I have a Corsair HX620 PSU.
Can i get an extender cable for this or should it fit ?
If anybody has the same set up and managed it let me know.
Thanks.

You might be able to stretch it, but I would get an extension, makes it much easier to route it.
Thanks Guys
I'll see if I can route the same as yours - I need to cut the cable tie on the hx620 that holds all the braided cables together.
Lol the diagonal line will mess with my OCD in wanting the cables running at right angles to each other so might check for an extender.
Doug what temps do you get running with those silent eagles are they better than the stock fans ?

My fortress and Be Quiet 650W have just arrived.
One question, when doug posted a picture of his cable management, I noticed he had some sticky pads to tie the cables back with, where can I buy them?.
It may seem like a simple question but I have not built a system for about 3 years so I want it to be as tidy as possible, also where can I buy cable brading?.

Check clockers clearance line, they have a reduced Silverstone Temjin TJ03S Aluminium Tower Case - Silver.... http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-003-SV
Last one in stock, great price great case....
I cant find these items on overclockers - am I allowed to mention where I bought mine from or would that be classed as mentioning a competitor ?

Cheers mr_x_plosion, I've removed the top 4 bays, and done a little more tidying, definitely better. I'll get some pics up when I get the chance.
I have to say I'm loving the fortress. Such an awesome case, looks great, really solid build and great cooling potential. I am thinking of getting a few Xigmatek fans aswell, they do look good.
