i was wondering if you guys can tell me how to like make a case look like it has like no cables in it. I saw this link on the faq http://www.twistedmods.com/modules....rticle&artid=94 and didnt like that. i saw some pics of cases that looked like they had nothing in there except all the hardware. if you can post thx and try to put some pics up.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Mounting your harddrives backwards helps a lot.
Use my recommendation in this thread as well about cutting a hole above your motherboard tray. You should be able to do this to most cases.

This is from my "rate my cables" post.
There are a couple ideas to get you going but all case/mobo/PSU combinations are unique so this is just to give you an idea.
This is not 100% complete (nothing in a computer ever is) but i'll show u how far along it is and its pretty decent now, I didn't have zip ties for the PSU wires so they are taped up for now, and the brown tape will change to electrical tape (just gotta get the wires to behave first) but that's all gonna change soon:
Of course, the profile shot of the Pamela 1Sixty in all her glory

Here is the "rate my cables" shot - not bad for now
_
-
And absolutely zero wires visible to the HDD
_
-
Because this is how they were routed, folder under the mobo between the mobo and the tray and through a hole the tray, then taped along the rail so you won't see it from the other side.
_
-
The unused USB cables and the temp probes sit up here until I figure out a way to route them, they look pretty comfy and at least they have friends to keep them company
_
-
The power and reset switches run from ALL the way up top behind the cages and like the IDE are taped along, behind a rail so you won't see them from the other side and they come out right under where they are to be plugged in.
_
-
Finally the old to the new, btw, note the scraches on the Lanboy from a car accident last Thursday....damn hydroplane...
_
-
Re routed the PCI-e wire and HDD power, got a lil case bulge but np, think it looks a lil better.
_
-
Also took profile a shot with the lights off (since I forgot to last time)
