This has changed slightly, as this shot doesn't show my Lian Li controller, and I've since finalised the wiring around the back (no more earth tape on show :p).

@EVH how the hell do you get your cables so tidy!

Jammed them all behind the motherboard. The finished internals are a little tidier than this! Had to take the molex connector of the Lian Li controller apart to fit it through the tiny gap at the bottom left mind.
 
@EVH Looks swish, but I have one problem... please straighten that Corsair logo on the cooler! @Bradmax57 I'll let you off as you have less room for the tubing. OCD perhaps? Surely I'm not alone :D

I've done some cable routing (although it doesn't look it), but it needs a lot more work. It's mainly the front panel wires creating the mess at the bottom of the motherboard. Could do with a bit more of a clean in there too. Could probably use some tips for cable routing, this case seems very difficult to hide cables in.

I've also lost the lower HDD mount which is very annoying as the upper one is not secure at the bottom and does not fit in its slot above due to the size of my graphics card.

If anyone knows where I might get a replacement lower HDD case for an Antec P182 I'd be very grateful :D

I did have it perfectly straight but the hose was kinked a bit, so when I put new paste on the cooler I decided to turn it a bit and let the hose sit properly at the expense of a straight logo.

I have OCD so yes, it wasn't a decision that I took lightly.
 
That silverstone fortress case looks awesome, love the curviness to it. Fortunatley i didnt buy a new case when i upgraded so its now at the top of the list!
 
Ok removed my optical drive and added some nzxt led lighting have 2 sets but only 1 set works second set around the cpu cooler area doesnt work so there going back and also added some bitfenix cables still need to change the ram. Leds look extremely white in person but blue on the camera phone.
