That cable management though
Good or bad?
The card is quite the card, it just looks so lame lol
That cable management though
Moving to a full size case won't make cable management any better. It all depends on the case itself. If it's a low end case, cable management will be crap. My case is a mid-tower and I have no issue with cable management.
My case was like $25? Somewhere around there. Was very cheap. Best I could get for the price, still cheap.
That or created the other thread with my name as the title. I still don't know why you want to be here so bad.
And then of course there's the WTF cable running to the back of your PC.
The "WTF" cable is the rear fan cable. There's nowhere to run it, so I run it along the back side of the case.
The card bends slightly downward due to the Clear CMOS button cap.

Also, you don't need to sound like a dick when you critique people.
I'll be stripping the entire thing down to give it its bi-annual cleaning. Maybe once I finish it will meet with "the masters" approval.
Travis,Are you saying the rear 120mm fan? If so there's 2 options. First, you could have removed the bottom expansion slot bracket and just ran it out the case there. Second, you can actually fit a cable that small up underneath your expansion cards very close to the end of the case, there's a gap there between the motherboard and your cards. Here's a pic to help show you where I mean-
Thats a bad reason, bending the PCB of the card like that is also bad for shorting out circuits prematurely. Doesn't the cap come off? It's only like 1/8'' above the sata ports, thats enough to conflict with the card?
I didnt notice a single cable issue.
If you dont want to have a single cable in sight do it in your own computer
And yes you came off as a total dick.
Blind in one eye and can't see out the other? I pointed them out clearly.
I was replying to the statement(s) he made concerning cable management. He gave his opinion, I corrected it with fact.
Just because it's correct in YOUR OPINION means 0. There is no such thing as "Correct" cable management. Either the owner of the Pc wants/likes it that way or not. There is no, " Ok this cable belongs here and that one there". NO. You can say if this were my computer I'd do this, NOT this is a fact you are doing it wrong. And lets say there is a 100% correct way to manege your cables ( which there isn't ) who the hell are you to say what it is. In my case, ( Yes in both ways ) my cables are 99% correct. There near 0 room behind my motherboard to put anything, I could have run the top fan cable under the panel but that's it. Just with the way my case is build and there the mobo sits etc, this is pretty much the best cables can get, and I've spent hours trying different routes. And running cables outside of the case, well that's just dumb.
There sure is a lot of people in the PC world that agree with me, just try googling proper PC cable management and you'll see the same things I just told you.
Who am I to say? Well, I'm a guy that has hundreds of pc builds under my belt. Do you? How many have you built? 1? 2? I can 100% guarantee you that I can make your PC look 200+% better than you have it, and yes with that case and all the same hardware. It would be way better with a modular power supply, but I've made do a hundred times without one so it's not a huge deal.
I'm glad you agree that running cables outside is dumb, thats kind of why I showed him a way how to fix that
200% Lmfao. Sure go on YouTube there are many people who say HOW to manage cables, that is just how THEY WANT TO DO AND HOW THEY KNOW HOW .
Any one who says this is a fact this I'm right because i've put together Pc's is just as dumb as the next guy.
I'm no expert, but I know for a fact You are wrong.
Let people manage cables how they feel is right, doesn't make anyone else right or wrong.
And telling someone how you think the setup can be improved can be done in a much more pleasant suggestive way, Not like a condescending dick. Truth only "hurts" if you want it to hurt.
