Hi, ive got a Corsair SPEC 03 case, (came today and i love it!) my motherboard is coming wednesday so ill be building my rig then.
Only thing is, I have a Corsair CX600M PSU, and the cable management hole for the 8-pin CPU power connector is incredibly awkward (you'll understand if you own this case) I was thinking of putting it through the top of the CPU cut-out (im getting an MSI Krait 1150 board), obviously once my motherboard is in place, would anyone recommend this? I'm not sure if it would get in the way of the fans (i plan on getting 2 120mm fans for the top, although they are offset so it might be okay, can anyone try help me out?

 

Im sorry if the pictures arnt great i didnt realise theyd be blown up._.

You can as long as there is enough space between the motherboard and the tray but what's wrong with going through the 8pin hole it does look slightly covered but can you not thread it through before installing the motherboard?
