Smile Help from above ((YOU))
Ok this is the issue.
Upgrading my complete cooling system and upgraded PSU on my PC and everything is working ok, but the miles and miles of wiring and cables. I would love to upload a photo, buy i dont have a camera.
Any tips or link that you can provide me with on how to manage this mess. Would be much appreciated.

The above guide looks to be thorough (at work, no time to read all of it) so the only "tips" I have is try to keep a middle drive bay open...maybe put a fan controller in it since they aren't very deep. Then you can just tuck all the unused ones and any overflow into that space. Also, I have run fan and drive power lines between the panel and the bottom of the mobo moning plate, then just snake them out right where you need them.

Don't know if those were in the guide or not...I apologize if I repeated stuff. You can look at my rig showcase and see how it worked out for me.

EDIT*** I need to take new pics...these are old and I didn't realize it was that hard to see anything. I'll update when I get home in about 7 hours. Sorry.

Thumbs up
Wooohooo!

I cant believe i did it. Completely took all the wiring out and rewired the hole thing in 3hrs. Got most of my Tornado fans and controller in. Still have to put my 2 intakes in. Some slite case mods are required to do this for the fans are twice as thick as the generic ones.
And to my surprise these fans are not that load on low settings. It has dropped my temp approx. 4c-5c. Hope to get some nice photos up soon for you guys. I think it looks great.

I want to thank all of you for your advise, hints, tips and links. I couln't of done it with out ya. Overclock.net ROCKS!

In the future soon:
Hope to pass that 4.0ghz mark.
