rating my cable management?

Did what you could with the awful cases with no back compartment...and very bad airflow, they look like 20 yo

What are the specs of the rigs ?

IPC for industrial. Have 360 aio one is z790s 14900 4070tis. Other use onboard gfx is i5 8500.

They look fine

 

The point of cable management is just to organize the inside so it can be serviced easily and increase airflow. You've done exactly that.

 

Anyone who complains about this not being better doesn't have a life to be getting back to

Looks fine to me. Some people would probably say to anchor the cables to the chassis for a "cleaner" look... But you mentioned these are PCs in a industrial setting. This is more than fine.

I see all the cables plugs are easily accessible to quickly disconnect them without the need to cut the zipties. As a tech working in industrial, love to see that.

Looks great, only issue isn’t cable related: your AIO shouldn’t have the cpu block be the highest part of the system, it can cause any air in the system to sit in the pump/block and pretty negatively affect flow. Usually on a new system it isn’t a problem but it can cause undue wear over time.

Thanks, i'm also building gaming PCs, my philosophy is easily assessable and quickly disconnect them. I saw some Gaming PC building using tons of the zip ties and it's really hard to maintain them.

This machine for our client they only use one or two years so that won't be a problem. But this case is really hard to deal with. If our client specially said  they need longevity we actually using another case rather than this. But thank you for your mentioned this to me.

No worries, always fun to see something done a little different in any case!

If no one is going to ever see it, then priority should be:

1. Easy to open and re-arrange
2. Airflow
3. Not hitting fan blades

So those key points, my only problem would be if the bundles of power cables allow any access or slack towards hard drives (first and last pics). Say in drive failure or need to upgrade, do you need to snip open whole bundle or can you just move it away to unplug and replug.

 

For personal machine, I would have gone different tactic overall, but thats personal preference over all.
