THE HORROR!!! Just kidding, but that actually isn't too bad when you start to think about it. The only problem would be if the cable from the top fan got caught in the CPU cooler.

When the case is upright they hang down so it won't happen :) and if it does I suspect it will just slice it theyre only very thin cables after all.

why wouldn't you cable manage? all you have done is wasted an extra $10 on a modular psu that you didn't need.

I think you mean "Show your terrible sins".

Hmmm... then unless you're getting a new case it can't be helped. Oh well its just for tidyness sake. I don't see it causing any problems except possibly choking the buttom fan.

It's about as clean as I could possibly make it.

 

A lot of people get anal about management in the back as well, but trying to do that is incredibly difficult when you have a lot of wiring.

The madness of this thread, do any of you guys care about your air flow? If half assing your cables if OK with you at least make it look nice and clean for your PC's sake.Make it look nice so your PC components can breath and like you alot more. :)

The back is a lot worse. It's a miracle i got the panel to close. :lol:  This was my first build, and my motto at this point in time is.....as long as it all works.  Come on guys. post up. lol

Let's look at that mess a little closer.  The card lean isn't my fault though. My Asus 770 just does that.

 

I failed a bit, because the side panel fan could be attached to the motherboard, but i couldn't be bothered to take out my graphics card to attached it.

Holy fck, does that 770 lean. My Gigabyte card does it a tiny bit, and even that bothers me. I need to do some cable management.
