Alright, I just spent the last hour or so cleaning up my case.

Before, cover on:

Before, cover off (look at that mess!):

After, cover off (what an improvement!):

After, cover on (I love the UV reactive round IDE cables)

I think I did alright, this is the first time I've ever attempted any sort of cable management, I left the IDE cables out, becuase 1) theyre uv reactive, and 2) theyre uv reactive, so whereever i hide them, they glow :)

:D
 
The bottom is still a little messy but other than that its pretty good. With the cover off I mean.
 
that 4th pic woulda been better without the flash :)

Good work cleaning your room.. err case.
 
with panel on: 8.5
with panel off: 7

you could try to have your IDE's bend the same way or somthing more attractive. and when ur panel is off, the HDD cables are a tad messy
 
Looks good. I think that you could still do a little works on the cables on the bottom.
 
thanks for the replies

first, i have two fans on the bottom of the panel, thats where those cables are coming from, i wasnt too sure where to put them, but since the bottom of the panel covers it up, i didnt worry about it

ill try playing around with the IDE cables some more problem is, the video card is in the way, i dont want them resting against the side of the panel

thanks again :)

im actually looking at new cases, this one doesnt have a lot of room to work around with (plus i botched up the blowhole ;) )
 
i can see where your going with the bottom because the side pannel covers that up. it looks much better. how better are your temps? 4 degress cooler im guessing
