Rate my cable management, I would appreciate the feedback! :)

I was told that my case has very poor cable management in a review video prior to buying it.
I do see the time it took being problematic for some people as well, so I could see that being a valid point against the case, but I love it:)
Let me know what you think!

Pretty blurry picture, but a good view of the interior

I think that's very well done. Which case is that BTW? Do you only use an SSD? I love the straight SATA cable, although it's not perfectly straight.

People are too spoiled in terms of cable management. I remember the time where I had to manage my cables in a first gen Antec P180 ... barefoot .... in the snow.

The cable management is excellent. It isn't restricting airflow or inhibiting anything. If you want to go ocd, you can manage the cables along the rear of the motherboard tray with some cable clips.

I didn't even notice that it wasn't straight, I might tie some more of those cables back there up quick.
Thanks though:)

Its actually one hdd until I gather the funds to drop on a ssd, shouldn't be terribly long though.
