Default Cable management.
Any tips regarding cable management and my rig? I will be taking it apart soon so i should be able to have fun with the wiring. However i always think its going to be easy but it always ends up messy. LOL. Also i have two invertors for 3 cathodes stuck to the side of my case which doesnt make things easy

Turn your hard drives around so you can route the cables towards the front hiding them.

Definatley turn your hard drives round and basically cram all the excess wire into any spare space you have making sure not to stop airflow, that is tha main reason i went modular

Get SATA drives!

J/K, If you have a dremel you might want to try cutting up your case for wire routing. I don't know exactly how your case is, but if you can, its definitely worth it.
