Very true ..here is a bit of motivation for him.

They make cable management very easy in newer cases now

And my old Lian Li case

As you have said it all about having a bit of pride about your case and try and keep
it clean by running the cables where you can.

Well, considering it's a "rate my cables" thread, what else did you expect? Unicycling midgets?

Wifey's PC should feel lucky to get any attention at all; since i'm assuming that it, like many a SWMBO's PC, is used mainly for facebook, email, and signing up to any and every site offering free stuff.

Top effort son.

There is no to very little dust left, the ODD was IDE (so I removed it), and the second SATA was for front panel eSATA which I have never seen any devices for let alone use it.

And yes all it really gets used for is FB, Minecraft, and Torrent sharing.

Yes I have spent a bit of time on OCN

Thanks to all for the positive words

Here is my first PC i've ever built... I did it a few months ago and it was quite nerve wrecking but it only took me an hour and i was quite proud of myself after

There are still certain things that i need to fix/change in regards to cabling etc but so far it looks like this (just add another 2 680 SC signature cards)

let me know what you guys think
