Post Your Cable Management?

[MogIsWinning]

I dont dare open the back, all my fan cables go to a hub back there plus the front io and the ssds ugh. Sometimes I hate the prodigy m

[mapegl]

Nice cable management on your prodigy M! Your PSUs cables are nicer than mine. I replaced the PCIe ones though. Those were fugly.

 

I tried myself, and this is the left side:

 

 

and the actual inside:

 

 

 

I should proably get a nicer 24pin, but BeQuiet are not being so great about cable kits....

at least you can look behind your right panel, I put my io and ssds back there. And you made the smart decision of a shorter psu good decision, I couldn't fit a 1mm longer gpu

Well I tried a lot of things in this case, and one thing was that I mounted my SSD (two would work too) to the front grill above the PSU. Maybe try that. Just use the rubber things for the HDDs as spacers to be able to get the cables in. It is kinda ghetto, but it keeps them out of the back. Just an idea.

I like how you're showing off the SSD. Nice job.

Mines decent, want to rerout 24 pin but cnat get it unplugged from MB...

This is my setup and cable management

There is so much cables.... I couldn't do much better

I may redo it if I have time after I put a proper res instead of the bay reservoir

And the cables:

I think I'll finally get mine up tomorrow. Just beware: My case has no real cable management options.

Dude I can't wait..

Dude I can't wait..

Be sure to sit down. (I'm mainly posting in here hoping that it will make me remember to do it tomorrow)

Tips:

 

- use cable ties

- get rid of useless wires like the hard drive activity light

- fully modular PSU's help

- braided cables (the fabric kind, not plastic) help as they are more flexible

- all black cables look more minimal even though they're still there

- try to minimise the use of Molex cables/connectors as they are massive. If you can, get piggy back Molex connectors so they're all in one place

- run your fans all to one spot, you can make a molex to fan splitter really easily with some wire and other bits

 

 

Oh my gosh dude... you should write a book on how to do your cable managment.  That cable managment is AMAZING

Lol, cheers. Unfortunatley I had to sell it being a uni student with expensive hobbies is hard!

I'm also selling my macbook pro and my pre-built rig.  Its sad to see them go (kinda ). 

[scaryjam823]

Not the cleanest but I have nearly 30 cables to deal with.

3 sata data hard drive

3 sata power for hard drive

2 sata data for disc drives

2 sata power for disc drives

2 Hot swap drive sata 

Hot swap molex power.

9 fans

Molex for fan controller

sata power for h100i and usb header

Usb header for card reader

Front headers = 8 cables

Motherboard power

Cpu power

gpu power

 

I'm sure there is more but I can't remember off the top of my head at the moment.

Here you go, @Aleks. I finally did it.

 

I feel I did good for a case with no cable management. There will be an NZXT Sentry Mix 2 in there, as well as a wire for an NF-F12 sticking out of the power supply. So... More mess. I have the Molex connector where the controller will go, and a PCI-E power connector hanging out for if I get a GPU any time soon. NOTE: The 24-pin being held down by a long ziptie isn't going to be like that forever. It'll be held down by the Sentry Mix 2 next.

I liked your original avatar better. It allways cracked me up.

I am actually really surprised with how you did this. Literally little to no cable management holes or anything.. I see builds in cases like that and it is pitiful compared to this. Nice job man. What are you calling this one?

What case is that?

This one is Vengeance. All of the info on it can be found in my sig.
