Ok, this is my first computer build and I was just curious to see what I could buy to make the wires look good in the case. I've seen some people sleeve and do rounded IDE cables. Is that it? Excuse the ignorance, but I only have my PSU in and my v1000b will be in next week, would I sleeve each individual wire, or them as a group? Where is the best place to buy these little extras?
So far all I have is the case, dvd drive, raptor HD, 6800gt, water cooling setup, psu, and the mobo.
 
The only limitation is your imagination. You can sleeve all, none, or some of the wires. You can hide them behind the motherboard, bundle them up in groups, etc. I suggest you take a look at the case mod gallery and look at other cases and how the wires are tucked away.

As far as sleeving, you can get that at a variety of stores, both local and online. One well known one is compusa. Also Fry's if you have one close by. Or, go online and look for them.

I've read that at least a dozen times. I am going to buy a rounded UV ide cable and maybe a uv sata cable and twist the 2 together to get a braided look or just keep the ones that come with the mobo and sleeve them. I'm going to look in the case gallery to try getting some ideas.
