I don't have any "before" pictures, so just imagine everything bunched up in the middle, right above the RAM... it was a mess. Taking 40 minutes or so to clean it up was a good idea. This is pretty much the best I could do, the frame rail in the back is touching the other side panel, and so is the motherboard tray, so routing cables under that was out of the question. Apevia Xplorer wasn't really made for cable management oh well.

Yours ain't that bad, you could easily move the IDE cable and the cables on the bottom. Like justing folding them up and ziptie them, then stash in the 5.25" bays.

Rate mine?

Give it a shot and let us know how it turns out.
haha. I just got that IDE cable. I thought the orange was a good idea. It looks cool in the dark with the UV lighting tho. Im going to pull it apart soon and put some sleeving in. Ill take some pictures when ive done it. Thanks for the tip

Is that a cardboard box. Nice. Well, from what i see, the cabling is good. Do those directional fans (like the black one on covering your cpu fan??) work?
Im thinking about getting one 7/10

Actually that one is cooling the NB, it works pretty good.

Normally that NB is passive and got rather toasty so I decided not to wait to use it on the new build and use it, and now the NB has been cool to touch.

Also, haha yeah its a cardboard box. That's what my SpotCool came in from Buy.com and I had to return my book that the mobo used to rest on so I put it to good use .
