Anybody who said that the case is bad for cable management is kinda stupid. It has plenty well placed holes for cable management.

Anyway your cable management is quite good but you might want to make the cables coming out of the power supply less stretched so they look much more natural. If they are too short then you could use Bitfenix alchemy extenders. The other advantage of that is you don't have to look at the ugly rainbow coming the 24 pin power cable.

yeah i have the black version of this case, and i have to admit there are some flaws that i dont like, but overall it is a good case. i noticed there isnt alot of space behind the motherboard tray for cables, with certain motherboards, the ram clips or the cpu power blocks the top fans, and the clips for the tool-less design are very cheap.

I have seen reviews of both the cases, and I think this one is a little different with the tool-less from what I saw. But yeah, I'm running a matx so I just barely clear that fan hole! I'm planning on throwing a rad in that spot and water cooling the whole thing:)

Looks fine to me, actually very neat. I could care less about cable management as long as the airflow around the CPU, NB and RAM is fine, but I can't see how anyone could be critical of your setup.

It looks good in the front but cable management is all about what's behind the motherboard tray if you ask me.
