Cable routing mods (Corsair Crystal 570x)

BurblingBarbacoa
Go to solution Solved by GDRRiley,

if you have a dremel they work well for this. 

I'm planning to build in the 570x and I'm concerned about the mobo I/O cable and GPU cable routing. I wanted to cut two holes in the PSU shroud to run these cables into. Very similar to the cable routing options in the s340.

 

(pics of both cases included)

 

I have never attempted any sort of case mod. I don't know what tools to use, what exactly to do or ANYTHING. 

 

Plz halp

If you find a later revision, there is a routing hole now. Though you might want more than one.

A routing hole for the IO or the PSU cables?

cheers. I probably will cut another for the GPU cables. Is it possible to order a match grommet to line the new hole with?
