Cable Management Thread

I am using an fractal design Define r4. I didn't put a lot of effort into it, but tried to keep it clean.

There are no permanent cable-ties, to allow for quick changes, if necessary.

Don't have a great straight on picture, but you get a decent idea there, internet audio is the only cable that I consider not clean. Gotta get a sound card.

I would like some suggestions on doing cable management on a Mountain Mods Ascension case. It's super wide open and not many places to "hide" cables. It's a horizontal motherboard so I can hide some of them behind the legs that support it and possibly on the underside of the mobo.

Yes, the SSD was mounted on top of the ODD in the 5.25''-bay. However it is not anymore, since I needed to remove both drives and it is now stuffed behind the mainboard-tray.

The SSD I am using is a Samsung 840 Basic 250GB drive. It's formfactor is 2.5''. I suggest that you ask any further questions regarding my computer in its build-log since it seems inappropriate to me to talk about thread-unreleated themes here.

If there isn't room to manage your cables, then create that room! ;)

Here is mine. I'm not completely satisfied with how it's done especially in the back but the 900d is very forgiving with all that room in the back. Next project is to sleeve the visible wires.

I went for white so that it contrasts better and colours better with the blue tubes, black would have worked pretty good aswell though :D
