Broke out the bulk pack of black zip-ties and got to work. I removed all my cables and re-plugged them in while zip-tying everything I could to the backside of the frame of the case. It looks SO much cleaner now and I can feel a huge difference in airflow when I put my hand over the fans. ;)

Up next: replace the dying front case fans and add a wifi card

I couldn't do too much since it's a non-modular PSU but I tried my best.

I tidied up the cables best I could... and I still need to dust it but I haven't had time to go up to MicroCenter and pick up some duster cans.

The cables look like I did nothing in the pics but in person it looks really different.

I get it I get it, this PC is not a show piece by any means at all. It ain't perfect. You don't need to constantly remind me in every thread I post. I'm really tired of it.

I wasn't commenting on the show-worthiness of the PC, I was saying that you can barely see that you did anything at all, and it was just mild ribbing at the excitement you burst in here with - but when it came time to show, if fell flat a bit.

Go get some air cans...or....

Do what I did, grab one of these bad boys ---> https://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod...002&cm_re=metro_duster-_-96-367-002-_-Product

120v air duster... I didn't know those existed. Next trip I take to MicroCenter I'll pick one up.
 
Its a one time cost,.. I spent so much on air dusters over the years and always getting the nasty bitterent on my hands

- this machine made up for itself with just 5-6 air cans from Staples.
 
91 burns faster, thus allowing me to get from environmental meeting to environmental meeting much faster than say a..umm a FIAT ..for example.
