do u reckon u guys could help me out with the wire management preeese? ok this is what ive got..

1) the HDD cannot be turned around, therfore the IDE and molex cables have to be passed through, as can be seen here

how do u think i could improve the tidyness and good lookingness of it ?

2) my DVD drive is at the top bay, do u think if i move it to the bottom one (theres 5 5" bays) and shove some of the PSU cables on top of that, neatly that is , i cables would become less evident? also i bought a rounded cable for my optical drive, but its too short, so that would solve this problem as well

3) all these fans (6 in total) and cold cathoise really make cable management messy, what the best way to limit cable interference, zip ties??

4) as seen here http://www.xbitlabs.com/misc/picture/?src=/images/other/gig-3d-aurora/p16.jpg&1=1 , the cable holder, well the case came with 2 extra ones, to help with the wires, any ideass where i could place them?

here is a pic of the other side http://www.systemcooling.com/images/reviews/Cases/Gigabyte_3DAurora/image49big.jpg

thanks in advance!

When I get home, I'll post up some pictures of my 3D Aurora and how I ran my cables. I've got it decently wired, and a modular PSU made it even better. Rounded cables help as well...

EDIT: Added pics...
