Just got my p182 case together. Any suggestions on how to make it cleaner? The 4 pin i have isn't long enough to go behind.

To Nivekz: I'm not sure how you could do much better. I'd say at least 8.5/10. Maybe somebody w/ more skill knows some flaws.

ziptie the sata together.. run the pci-e cable from where harddrives are coming from. hide that red loop on the right behid mobo.. if not.. firnd a shorter one.. or loop it down the hole the sata are coming from. .

looks good otherwise! LOL

oh. u dont use the ez-plug? o_O

Of course, how obvious is that?! Provided it doesn't interfer with my intake fan I shall do that tomorrow

Nivekz, I know you did a nice job. I give that a 7.5/10. But you can certainly improve that with the cm690 and that PSU. See my pics with my CM690. I know you can do better. You gotta be obsessive compulsive about it! hehe Be sure to study the pics of the back of the case to see the secrets.

Balake, try to hide the PCI-E cable behind the mobo if you can. Actually, try to fit as many cables behind there as you possibly can. As I said to Nivekz, I think we need to take advantage of our obsessive compulsive nature to get a really clean cabling job.

But I give that one an enthusiastic 7/10!

also. try getting an extension cable for the cpu power cable. im short by like 1-2 inches.. looking from the cable design, its an Ultra psu.. so ur probably short about the same as well

I ordered a atx 4 pin extension cable sleeved, and a dremel (lol) - my pics are on page 58, I'll repost when its improved.

Well after listening to people's ideas (thanks go4life!), I had another blast at getting my case even tidier; flipped the hard drives the wrong way round which caused quite a few problems with the power connectors being so close to the front intake fan. However, with careful application of zip ties my case is now even tidier:

This looks bether! keep on the good work the small things is often the best to change

Here's my Antec 900 at the moment. I was thinking of soldering some "extensions" to the I/O panel cables, but I may also end up getting an Antec P182. I'm getting sick of the look of the 900 after having it for a few months. I think I'm more into the smooth, sleek, minimal-extra-crap cases.

I actually ended up routing the 4-pin CPU power cable in between the motherboard and side panel of the case.

For being such a cool case, you'd think they could've come up with a better cable management system, such as better hole placement. I think you did a great job with what you have, and so I give you a 9/10!!

I still love this thread.
