i got the same problem, the back or underneath of my HAF XB looks like a mess, but i haven't had time to deal with it, these past few months, been having a lot of personal problems.

but what if u take one area at the time, and manage, does it end up the same way?

i am facing a challenge when i get my BitFenix Prodigy-M next month, i want to do it proper the first way :laugh:

I tried that but the cables have to cross each other the challenge is actually the front fan connectors and the sata cables.. and the way nzxt places the hard drive cage is not so.. interesting.. i envy datacenter cabling :p

for fans, i use extender cables, that came with the Noctua fans i am using, it's for now.

they are cheap and u can get them sleeved and different colours many places, or u can make ur own if u wanna try.

just try to arrange the cables first so you dont create many crossing cables
try separate the cable into several section like hdd, power (board, vga, molex)
and try to manage it as simple as you can, if you are stuck its ok as long as from side it looks ok
if you are hardcore man you could drill some holes to make it better
