How would you clean up this mess?
I hate the right hand side of this system, I wish the GPUs PCIe plugs were on the cards ends and not the top..
Suggestions?

Reroute all PSU wires behind the motherboard tray and use either double sided velcro or zipties to un cluttered the mess

TBH its not that bad :)

Agreed , nothing a few well placed zip ties can't handle

Maybe try to tape those fan wires between the cpu heatsink and exhaust fan to the bottom of the fan to hide them a little

Not bad. Looks similar to what I have to work with. I have yet to become a pro at uncluttering the mess that is my case, but I'm working on it. Another case could help my cause, but why spend the money if I don't have to? ;)
Your sig says 2x 680s, but I see 2x 670s. Sorry, I don't troll much, but when I get an opportunity once in a blue moon, I bite :laugh:

680's was a typo...

whoops...680's was a typo...
I'll fix it now.

ORrrrrrrrrr...maybe I'll get the 680's.

Let me ask the lady of the house, brb.

BAM(*&^%%&(*^_*)+(BAM=OUCH);)
Ok, I'll change the specs to 670s now.
thanks

Yea, the case thing...
I'm going to work on the 922 tonight and see if I can't do better.

I need to get them cables to come out near the bottom of the tray, under the video cards then up.

That's about the best I can do unless someone else has any suggestions?
;) (besides the red cable...that's going as soon as I get a long black one)
