My planned build is with an NZXT S340 on my desk to the right of my keyboard, mouse and monitor. I have noticed that it is quite a tall case, and I'm not sure how I would route the cables neatly, particularly for headphones/headsets. Any suggestions? Is there something I'm missing?

Just adding to my previous point, the S340's front audio + USB ports are on the top so it would mean the cables would hang across me really irritatingly.

i have a phanteks enthoo pro M, similar case, quite tall ineed, and the I/O is off to the side, but almost at the top of the case

 

i just keep my front io clean, and route everything to the back, even my headphone jack.

i jam it behind my monitor and under my desk with zip ties and some double sided sticky tape

 

i hate staring at some cables in the front of my case.

Part of the problem is that I'm planning to get the HyperX Cloud 2 headset, which has a USB soundcard and volume thingy that sits on your desk. I suppose I could route the cable round from the left of my monitor and mirror tape the soundcard to my desk...

Ideally I would get a wireless headset with controls on the ear cup. The Logitech G930 is the only headset in a similar price range, but I've heard mixed things about it. Some people say it's brilliant, and others say "eh". What are your thoughts?
