I think I tried my best...

Psu at top , got no idea why oem(Hp) likes to flip everything upside down

 

non modular psu/ no case backplate/ can proper fit 12cm fan = nightmare

 

Parts are:

i5 2500/ asus H61m-k

antec C40 9cm cooler + $3 led fan (held in place by 24pin cable)

sapphire 6850 / 650w FPS gold psu

4+2gb ram / 500gb wd blue / dvd reader/ bx500 ssd

 

Do you think I can route 4/8pin cable under the gpu ?lol

I'd probably just strap the CPU power where it is to the case with a zip tie

I think I will just use tape, (not worth wasting strip tie here!)

personally I hate zip ties, because they are one time use only. Velcro straps are where they at!

good thing that psu cables are often pretty thick and hard, could easily mold the shape without much effort.

 

Actually most "youtube pc builders" uses too much zip ties for one off neatness
