First Build

[jokky102]

Hi guys i wanted to show you my first (probably ugly) build
know that i could tide more my cables but being the psu not modular it did not help me, I did the best i could 
I also know that i could put the cpu cable in the back but it was to late (my mistake hahaha)
Anyways enjoy or brace yourself.....horror incoming......hahahah.

The specs are:
Cpu:    Intel Core i5-3450
Video: Gigabyte gtx 670 OC
Ram:   8gb (4x2gb) Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600
Boot:  Samsung 830 64gb
Data:  Seagate Barracuda 2TB 64MB
Psu:   Corsair TXV2 650W semi-fanless
Case: Zalman Z11 Plus  Blue Led 

 

 

 

Ok in half an hour without ties cables (i will buy them tomorrow) i've managed to do this

 

Here i've used the tip from mvitkun  [ thanks buddy :) ] so i've split the cable 4+4 in two and

managed to slide it in (Of course only after swearing because he didn't want to....haha)

 

As you can see i still have to clean and tide in the right. I will do it soon.

 

[whatthe_fuzz]

is your PSU mounted...?

[jokky102]

is your PSU mounted...?

yes why?

 

ah i understand what you asked me.

 

Yes it's mounted it's the image that give the look of being shifted to the left.

 

I assure you the psu is well mounted to the back :)

[whatthe_fuzz]

oh i guess it's just the angles but in the last picture it looked like you just plopped it in there! haha nevermind! 

for $15 you can drastically change your cable management. all you need are some extensions. 

[mvitkun]

you could definitely do better with cable management,thats the Z11 (+) right?

I have the same case ,as a tip use A LOT of cable ties in the back

take a look at my cable management,same psu,same case.

 

no excuse for bad cable management,we've all made excuses about it,just take an hour or two to manage it better.

could you post the specs as well by any chance?

 

yes why?

it kind of looks diagonal in the case due to the way the photo was taken

 

for the cpu cable try to run half of the 4+4 pin in first through that cable routing hole,then the other one,I've heard it worked for some people. 

[jokky102]

As many of you said, i will buy some tidying cables 

 

and use some extension and put everything in the back. 

 

thx
