I've never seen a "How To" guide to wire management inside your case. I just use common sense and lots of nylon zip ties.

This is a pic of my computer before the last upgrade. Pic was taken about 3 years ago when it was a 1GHz PIII system.

not really useful and ur wires can be seen i have saw guides (dont remmber the site) but it shows step by step how 2 make ur wires not seen and one step was removing the right side case panel and hiding ur wires behind the mb tray.

Oh, you wanted a guide on how to hide the cables...didn't quite understand what you were asking in your first post. Look here.

And this link is really good to know too.

k thanks cricket last night at 3:00 in the morning i started and didnt get done until 9:00 in the morning. now my temps with 1 awsome fan and all the rest are crap is 33c-34c underloads i havent looked but i would say it never gets over 40c and i got it overclocked.


my problem i had thow was hiding the SATA cables and a few others but let me tell u just hiding the wires made it drop 3-5c and makes it look nice.

also how can i post a pic 2 show u my work (i didnt take out the mb or the molexs so i couldnt hide every wire if i did u wouldnt c no wires)

Get a camera and take a picture, then place it on a photo server like photobucket.

I didn't actually understand anything else you said... 33-34C under load doesn't sound right... if it is, you should be very happy

no its not underloads its while idle or doing stupid tasks like waching 3 movies at once while dling stuff and while playing music than it will go to like 36-37 no higher thow playing games it goes to like 40-45 and its overclocked to 2.6 ghz my cpu is a 3800+ that suppose 2 run at 2.4 i still can over clock way more and have a nice stable comp but this is good for now.

hope the image works (im gonna take out my mb some time and if i have 2 cut some holes in the mb tray so u dont c any wires at all)
