Cable management should be the least of you're worries. You need to gut that system and do a total cleaning and try to get some dust filters. That whole dust thing is not a good look.Here is mine, I dust it out at least once a week.dd6ff38c8c39fc8a283631de74a206ac.jpg3a237ac311942a01b0678ba015414a60.jpg

I disagree, if you are one that doesn't like any type of dust in you're system then I say yes, one a week. And if you like dust bunnies then do it once a month. There is no right or wrong, it's all up to the person, and as for me showing my PC it's to show him what a once a week cleaning can look like as to what he is running into. All we do on here is voice our opinions and nothing more, we try to help and not tear down.
