The back is a horrendous mess though... I can't really decide whether or not I should go through and fix it..I kinda want to as the bottom of the back panel is getting bowed out a bit...

P.s. any advice on "straightening" out the gpu cables?

nice rig man ! i love it :3 , can you tell me the specs? and i need the same advice too bro :/

Intel 4690k | Cooler Master Seidon 240m | EVGA GTX780 SC ACX | MSI Z97s SLI Plus |

8GB 2400mhz G.Skill Ripjaws X | 240gb Samsung 840 Evo | 1TB Western Digital Blue | H440 (Black/Blue) | Windows 7 Professional | Dell P2414H | Corsair K70 | Logitech G502 Proteus Core | PP07 24pin, 8 pin, 2 6+2pin | 60cm White LED Bitfenix Alchemy.

A side note about the LEDs, 30cm is more than enough to light up the case, but the issue is that everything beneath the gpu is dark, so 60cm works quite well as I ran it across the top and ran it down the side of the hdd bay thereby lightning up the top half as well as below the gpu as well. I defeinitly could use an LED controller though...its quite bright. I might connect the Alchemy LED strip to the onboard LED controller so I can easily turn all the LEDs on/off, but we'll see...

I also have to pick up either a PWM fan splitter (I was thinking the 8-way Swiftech PWM Spllitter), or a 12v to 5/7v molex power so I can run the fan controller at lower speeds (assuming the fans can start up at 5/7v).

 

Lastly, I think I may switch the RAM to the other channel. Right now they're in the black channel leaving the blue channel visible...I think it would look better if I switched them into the other channel thereby adding some black in between the ram. 

Unfortunately I also had to moved the computer off my desk...so its now hidden under my desk :(

its pretty nice man :) , but i thing you should go with the Corsair H105 but who cares anyway :3

 

and why you have a sleeved 8 pin cable for the mobo?

A seidon 240m at $60 vs. an H105 at $110~....yea Seidon 240m it is. 

 

Whats wrong with my 8 pin cpu cable? 

 

You should also quote or @KellerKind so people know you responded to them.

NZXT H440 master race. No but seriously, cable management barely even exists with this case. Other than the sucky airflow it's great imo.

So true....I got my cables managed decently, but even still its quite challenging getting the back panel on.

EDIT: Poor management. 2/10. Hide teh bundle over near teh HDD cage and it will be a lot better (and by hide, I also mean you can sip tie it together into a single large bundle of cables that does not have vines coming out like it currently does.) 

 

Where is it at?  Currently I will give it a 10/5 for not being able to see any cables.

@farhanorakzai erm...I think you need some black sleeving & lots of velcro + zip ties. Come on man! you have quite a nice PC. If you invest in a little tidiness everything will be looking top-notch very quickly,

Please become a member of the Linus Tech Tips forum, keep writing smug remarks & let us love you. Peace out.
