As you can see below my case is somewhat bland i need help, i dont have a clue where to start, the wires look untidy but they ar etoo short to do anything with (q-tec gold psu) Ideas and places to buy would be good Richman
damn. that needs some serious cable tidying . Id unplug everything and take the whole psu out. then dicide which cables you need and which cables you don't need. then tie all the wires you don't need together, put the psu back in and put the "bundle" above the psu (if theres space), or above the cdrom. try to run cables behind things so you can't see them and make them pop out right next to where they need to be plugged in. As for the ATX cable, it might be easyest to just get some split loom to cover all those wires and route it so its close to the mobo, not over your aero7. also route the speed control for your aero in the gap between the gfx card and the mobo. and stealth the cd drives! good luck m8!
How about painting or stealthing your drives? CCFL's? How about a UV one, and then get hold of some UV reactive paint? LED fans? Window etch? I think your best bet would be to somehow 'theme' your case, and make it look like something else (I'm in the process of doing mine - very Tron looking, just need to do all the PCB tracks with red/blue UV paint). Also, if it were me, I'd replace that Q-tek PSU with something a bit more expensive (I've heard many bad things about Q-tek PSU's) - you could try and get hold of the Tagan PSU (reviewed here )...I got one the other day and it's a great PSU...really quiet, and has solid volts. - plus, it would solve your "cables are too short" problem...
You've also got your power supply in upside down and I think the bracket is back to front. Not a big problem but it could help you sort out the wire mess.
Cheers for this it was the wrong way round as you said i have not turned it round and also i popped over to kustom pcs and ordered ACRyan Dual 4" Cathode x1 (Not telling color just yet) Clear / Silver IDE Cable 45cm x2 And i could resist a nice new k/board and mouse so i ordered the Logitech Cordless Desktop MX Thanks Everyone Richman
rotate your areo7 so it faces from the front of the case to the back, this should help drop your temps too. Only rotate the fan not the heatsink How does stealthing your drives cost anything? Its just the original blank plates, attatched to the drives.
ummmmmm double sided tape, superglue, epoxy lots of things. depends how permenant you want it to be. oh and velcro!!
Well i suppose i want them not to fall of or anything so they have to stick good but if i cahnges cases then they will need to be easily removable Richman
Well you can use superglue or somethin, im sure it would twist off if you wanted to remove it. Also you have to remove the tabs, so it doesnt stay in the case when the drive goes back in.
