ive installed my system into a corsair 350d, there's quite a few cables behind motherboard tray for cable management and it was difficult to get my side panel on as the cables were there. Is it ok for pressure to be on these cables?

yeah I have sooooooo many cables running behind my pc you can see a bulge in the metal back as I need to apply a fair bit of force to close it.

same, does it affect anything/ can it cause any problems or damages etc? have you ever had any problems with them being their causing bulge?

Err well I have wrapped all my wires in electrical tape so they don't touch the metal and short out. Including the ends of the wires such as the Molex connectors. if you do that then no everything will be fine.

 

Just as said above make sure its not pulling on anything.

Look at the latest upgrade video that Linus has done for his personal rig. He almost lays on top of his PC to get it shut, even with 8 SSDs in between the cable salad. :D

who cares...
