That seems very time consuming; I guess cleanliness takes a mountain of time.

This may be a stupid question; but do I use regular tape or no?

If your really ambitious take the 24pin connector apart and solder it directly to the back of the MB for ultimate wire cleanup ... I wanna do that one day lol

Doesn't matter, I used ductape / electrical tape, there's no exposed wires so anything will work

I'm mainly afraid that I'll use too much solder and short two wires together and kill my cheapo MB lol ... maybe once I'm out of school and can afford to replace something if I kill it.

And is there any way to hide the huge 24pin without being too tedious (aka soldering it to the back of the mobo )? Maybe the 6 pin graphic card wire also; not very good at wire management past what I have.

I ran the 6 pin graphics wire, it came off the card then straight down and under the MB, the huge 24 pin, your kinda out of luck, all you can do is take it apart and sleeve it to make it less visible.
