I am a little bit confused...you have a $1000 cpu, at least $400 on the ram, another 500$ for the gpu...and you have the stock heatsink on the cpu? The wires seems kinda frantic, but I can see that lots of effort went into making it presentable, I wonder it the PSU being on the bottom of the case contributed to the mess. Also it seems strange having that whole setup in a 965, but I guess if it works just fine, it's not a huge issue. I suppose you are not oc'ing much with stock everything, but I still think the effort deserves a 9/10.

Nice system, it looks great. I can see that you put good effort into making it as neat as possible, but I think the fact that the PSU is on the bottom makes it harder to hide cables, good job though.

10 for processor but 3 for the FAN
10 for the mobo ( I have one too)
10 for the card but this mobo use cross-fire systems and i think its better to use a cross systems
2 for cable management ( man u need a sleeving kit, somenthig to organize u cablesand plissssssss mode the CASE the PSU under the mobo its the worst thing in a small case

good luck

wires....ew man. whatever you dont use tuck it under the harddrive. you might want to even move the drive up 1 bay to give more space for wires.

He can't do anything about it, and many people don't have the time to sleeve their cables.

Man, cable management is very important in a casemode .This mobo is incredible and if you can show more details of the system that u build more positives points are add.

In this especific case this casemode need a cable management, if u looks closer there many cables near HD and many cables create EM.

I sugest for this case a better arrange of the cables, he dosent need the sleeving but he needs to organize and distribuit the cables around the case and hidden most part of them

End. ;)

First of all thanks all for sending your comments. Regarding PSU at the bottom of the case, this is the only available place to be because if you look close you will see a fan at the top of the case which exports the hot air from the CPU. CPU fan is good enough (for now but in the future a water cooling will take its place) because CPU temperature at full load reaches
33C and system temperature at 25C; not bad i think for a not overclocked system with those records. About the cables there is nothing more i think i can do... please any advice is accepted. Waiting for your reply...

sure there is dude check out my casemod http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/details.php?id=578
you can always hide wires. you just need to work on the routing of them.

or alternatively you could make your wires into a feature to match the theme of the case, like I tried to do with my case - > http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=26343

I voted 6/10 because:

Im sorry but I dont get it, its got amazing spec but no style, it needs a tidy. Good luck with it though.

I have that case, my cable management is better, plus I have a fan mounted on the inside of my HDD cage as well. 6/10

Very sick power wise, but the presentation doesnt do much for me. Too many wires, no watercooling or aftermarket heatsink / fan and whats up with the white dvd drive?. Well you spent the money where it count and I could only dream of having a machine like that. Clean up the cables more , get some cool lighting , a nice CPU cooling device and a black drive cover and I'll give it a 10.

Get a $10 metal hole saw from HomeDepot and make some holes in the mobo tray. You can route you cables behind the mobo, and between the mobo tray and the right side panel. Take a look at what I did: http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/1027.html

My pictures are out dated. Since those were taken, I've hidden three more cables, and cleaned up the interior. I'm planning to replace the mobo soon, and will take new pictures after that.

Good luck with your 900
