Performed Mods:
Cut holes in rear support panel and MB tray for cable managment. Cut fingers on aforementioned holes while applying edge molding which is supposed to prevent the cutting of fingers... damnit!
Low specs and stock coolers are because this rig was built for my father primarily as non-graphics intense home office type of system. The CPU, memory, hard drive, and DVD drive were all parts I had left over from other builds so all this really cost me was a MB, case, power supply, and video card. He doesn't play games, but he may indulge in the occasional Star Trek themed software from time to time so I at least wanted the system to be able to handle games with mid-range graphics settings. Before I ship it off to him I decided to put a couple of hours into cable managment to see if I can get one up on TKPenalty and SladeSurfer.

fantastic! 9/10
who ever marked this as 1/10, has no judgement...plain jealous!
Haha... only took about 10 mins for someone to slam it with a 1.
I'm guessing that was probably to knock it down in the overall standing order... I like to give people the benefit of the doubt ;-)

Read the description of what this computer is built for before you go ranting about doing the Lian-Li family injustice. The stock heatsink/fan is perfectly fine for this computer's purpose, but I tell you what... I'll post a screenshot with Everest, Stability Test, AI Tuner, and CPU-Z just for you.
To my own amazement this damn thing is running at about 40C (47C @ cores) under stress load and only 28C at idle. I'd say the stock Intel cooler is doing quite well with a +12.5% overclock.
Speed stepping is enabled on the CPU. My father will almost NEVER hit max CPU load on this system, much less sustain it, so shipping it to him as it sits is the plan.
This is posted here in the gallery for the sole purpose of showing off the cable managment.

Unfortuneately i don't have the money for that kind of stuff lol... T________T
Damn someone should have told me the P5K-E came with that kind of SATA connector T_T
by: tkpenalty;601125I'm not married (at least not until this Sept.) so I still get to spend my money freely.

What... it has a cable!
You just can't see it!! Ha... *eyepoke*
I'll give you 10 to offset that ridiculous 1. Very clean!!!!
love that kind of cable management..10/10 vote for me..^_^
by: EnergyFX;601089We both know that, but voting 1 for no apparent reason, cause or intent is plain stupid.... and by doing it, the value of ones work, is reduced... pisses me off...

nice spec,beautiful cable menangment,great case!all you need is a nice coper zalman cpu cooler.9/10 from me!
Gotta love that PSU, flex-force ftw! 10/10
Btw, I wanna know, how's that power supply doing for you? I'm looking for a good PSU in the 600-800W and I'm actually looking at the 800W model right now, specs in my current sig. I'm having this blackscreen everytime I load a game up, but yeah.. :D

Beautiful job man! 10/10! Now I'm really excited to get my new Lian Li case!!!
I will beat up whoever gave you the one with my old Antec 900. This is the reason that everyone who votes should also leave a comment. TPU please make this mandatory!!

Good job but I see an unsightly cable! Turn your rear 80mm fan counter-clockwise so you can hide it's 3 pin a little better. If I could give you a 20/10 I would, good job.
well 10/10 from me.
If it were any cleaner, you could fab 45nm wafers in it. 10/10
by: xnox202;601421Stable and uber quiet... but this is a very low power system. 600W is probably overkill.

I sent you a PM.
You fail. There is a unused molex in plain sight on top of the fan infront of HDD cage.
jk. well not about the molex, but that is a damn good job of cable management.

That plug is for a fan controller that came with the case. It's mounted right near the Pwr/Reset buttons. I debated cutting the wire off but decided to just let it be. Good eye my friend, but don't think for a second that I didn't catch it!!
Dang, now I have to dig it out of there and hide it behind the HDD cage.
by: EnergyFX;601765How about that FDD :laugh:

Full throttle on the 10's from me,, Clean & Cool, 5.5 in Vista is alright by me, Nice Job.
OMG! I really need to know how in the hell you guy's are hiding those cables! Makes mine look like a pile of crap on the inside http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/875.html

Thank you.
I left a comment on your case.
by: pentastar111;605513Search for the cable management clubhouse on the Cases/Modding section of the forum, I'll help you out. Read the conditions however.

I will definitely be in touch with you guys when I get ready to do my next project....Should be by this August or September.....probably going with Phenom and ATI crossfire this round...But yes, I want to step up into the "BIG Leagues" of cables management and you guy's have simply blown me away with what you are able to accomplish.... :-)
beautiful.. it took me a while to realize that the cables were even plugged in! :laugh: 10/10

TK, the only "1" rating came less than 10 mins after this was posted in the gallery.
I voted 5/10 because:
Hello. Nice pc. If some bright photos 10/10!

By the time it was done I had upgraded the CPU heatsink to a Enzotek, added a corsair memory cooler, swapped the standard side panel out with a windowed one, and added a couple of white cathode tubes to show everything off.
That computer is what finally got my fiance interested in system building.

What has the lighting to do with the state of the case. You are an idiot.
Try to get such a nice pc yourself.
I like how you made a nice hole for the 24 pin connector.
great stuff. Also 8 from me.
by: technicks;720169no offence but how a case with no mods gets a 10 in a case mod gallery is beyond me?

Awesome! pretty clean decent ring. 10/10. Just use another heatsink with lights.

Just because mods are in plain view and easy to spot doesn't mean they aren't there buddy. Anybody can hack away at a computer and add 13 colorful fans... it takes time and patience to mod a case in such a way that you would swear it looks stock. That was the whole point of this particular case. The goal was to make it as clean and simple as possible without adding equipment or altering the originality in any extreme way. I actually had to almost completely disassemble the entire rig to get this end result.
And I know all you have to go by are these photos, but when it was done and shipped, it had a better HSF on both the CPU and GPU, RAM fans, a windowed side panel, and white cathodes to show it all off.
very tidy rig 9/10 for you
by: EnergyFX;745397youre right energy, but as i already stated I choose to save 7/8/9/10 for the "1337" rigs like Mkmods or CyberDruid for example

sorry if you dont like my honesty in saying that you have an "excellent" rig
by: intel igent;745545I have no issues with your (or anyone's for that matter) rating and voting philosophy. I was mainly responding to the "no mods" comment.
youre right energy, but as i already stated I choose to save 7/8/9/10 for the "1337" rigs like Mkmods or CyberDruid for example

I agree that higher votes should be reserved for rigs with more work than this one, my previous post was not intended to discredit your vote, it was only meant to counter the comment that went with the vote.
Found a picture of the finished rig. Gallery is updated with it as the main image.
beautiful job!
