Pics are slow to upload, yeah that's a Scythe Infinity. I had to move my sidefan from inside to the outside add grill... viola, it fits! Oh, I also had to cut off the lever for the mounting mechanism on the Infinity since the NB was in the way. (now use a small hook to get the lever over) I just bought a new retention kit for it, so the whole thing is getting redone this weekend, with new themalpaste on everything! Hey.. Merry Christmas everybody!

Oh, I'm going to be taking pics of my re-do! I don't know weather to start an Antec 900 cable management how-to thread and post step by step, or just do it here. Actually that sounds like quite a bit of work, so I'll just post the pics here by monday... then perhaps I can do some writing and editing of the how-to while I'm slacking off at work. Perfect.

Im not going to shred it to bits, but I will recommend flipping the PSU to clean up the wires. I and many others have done this already , as it gives access to a direct route (dremmel a hole) out the back of the mobo tray. Looks good as far as it sits now , but could be lots better IMO. I say 6/10 (could use interior paint as well)

Nice fans, You get a 4 from me.
Way to many lights, cant see jack, take more inside shots, and get some cable management.
I personally hate a pc that is just a light show

lol, your cabling isnt what needs fixing up, its your photography skills, thats an AWFUL angle to take the interior shots at, why couldnt you show us whats in the HDD bays? Keep your camera perpendicular to the side of the case, its pretty hard to see anything at all (Hint, look at my antec 900, go to my sig's system > Antec 900, take notes of camera angle)

Lol, you got me! I was pourposly trying NOT to take pics of the HDD bays! They look like hell! This was kind of a throw together thing when I got my new PSU. I just finally found my camera after moving and got a little excited. I have now flipped my PSU and did a better job with the wires without drilling or cutting anything. I'll put some new pics up after I go shovel some more damn snow!
Btw, I'm not a stickler on wire management like many of you are, since I'm constantly changing my system, Tk you have a 900? Cant' find it anywhere?

*Crap after looking at the pics again, it looks a lot better now, getting new pics up ASAP!

This is my last shot at this thing before I either start cutting it full of holes or get a new case. Either way it's staying like this untill I get some new hardware. Comments and suggestions on case and poor photography skills are welcome. (almost 8 years of Art school couldn't help with the photo part unfortunately) My camera sucks donkeys too... What the hell should I do with those sata cables?

I gave you a 9/10 man, that Scythe is just hard to fit in a case, you did it and very well I might add.

I really like the Antec 900 case but cables is a b*tch on them. For that reason, I say keep the SATA cables as they are, it's going to be tough to hide them without doing MAJOR EXTENSIVE motherboard tray modding and dremelling.

Nice solid build, too!

Yeah, my whole point is to try to get the cables as well done as possible without doing any drilling. I literally cut the front audio wires and firewire cables from the front panel out of the case to add more "tucking" room. I like having the IDE DVD burner because the ribbon cable hides the LED wires. The only reason I'm keeping this case is because you will not find a better air cooled case. The pics really don't do justice for the lighting either. But thanks for the 9 Jr! Oh, and I had to cut the lever for the mounting mechenism for the Scythe because the NB is in the way. I have to mount it using a flathead screwdriver now. I have this Swiftech 220 compact sitting here.....

If you're looking at this in the case gallery, the links are different from the actual pictures for some reason...
