Please post up your TJ07 (or other case) and your wiring job, I need some ideas on how to hide my wires, since they are all over the case right now.
I have went behind the motherboard with some, but I have a ton of multiple 4 pin molex power supply strings, and they are hard to hide.
I still have decent airflow, as my temps are more than acceptable.. I just want to make it look better.
Maybe I should go with a modular power supply, eh?
 
I have an Antec P180B w/ Thermaltake Toughpower 700W. It is easier to organise wires in side the P180, but it still is a challenge.

Yeah I would get a Modular PSU if you can offord it,other than that get either some split loom or cable braiding kits. Even schrinkwrap or wire ties would work.
 
If you have the balls to do it, you can mod your PSU so that there aren't any additional cables hanging around. You just have to be carefull on what you cut, and mark it so that when you put it into the 'connector' or adaptor, you don't put the wires wrong, and fry something. I'd offer to do it :D
 
at present it's 273 pages in that thread,waaaayy to many to browse threw.
 
You'll need 90deg sata connectors. You can hide wires behind the 5.25 cage on the right part of the case if the bays are toward you. You can zip tie your extra psu wires together and put it in the extra psu area where an extra power supply would be. I looped my sata wires around the metal bar. You can also stuff power wires between the two hdd cages little space there. Also there's some good holes under the 5.25 cage and holes over the 3.5 cages which you can use to run wires. Plus you can also run wires behind the two hdd cages on the side which pulls air into the case. I had it all nice and neat a year ago but now it's just laying around. You can use the mobo tray to hide the fan wires.
