My first build ,how bad is the cable management

step40

I am finally done with my first build.That was the hardest thing ive done in my life for real.It took me like 24, 25 hours. I made so much mistakes.the cables were the hardest part.I had to remove fans and components like 10 times because of my mistakes (decisions) .So that how it looks at the end.Do you think the cable managament on the front is bad?I wont post the other side of the case because i am going to get banned probably lol (closed the case panel hard because of all the fat cables).

Not even that bad, or at least not nearly as bad as my first rig. Now all you gotta do is post your specs in your signature like us master race pros

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

Would look better for the 24 pin and 2 gpu cables to come from the gap to the right of the mobo, then run the front panel cables through the back and emerge through the same slot as 24 pin, just lower down. Cables running from the left of the mobo could run down and hug the bottom of the first pcie slot, the gpu heatsink would conceal them well. +1 for getting a power supply that doesn't use ketchup and mustard cables. Looks good for a first build

Nice outcome, glad to hear you got it up and running smooth. Looks really good too! Just move the motherboard power cable and you got a good looking machine there.

Hey Matey, welcome.

And Good job there.

 

My first few PCs, were shambles because I didn't care for managing cables (beyond basics)

 

Thats a nice looking system, and shots of it are well done. Congrats on the first time build, expensive Lego can be stressfull but not so bad now is it. Fruits of the Labor, Good Job
