Kurash... don't kill antec but slade's going to have it easy. Antec updated the 900 to have cable management holes...

This thread makes me cry :cry:.

*Wishes he spent a bit more on a P5K-E WIFI*

Yeah I have that version, it has 2 holes near the HDD/FAN racks that are slotted vertically. Not necessarily in the best positions but it does help a lot. I use them both, and I may go through my rig again eventually, but at least using them helped greatly w/getting wires out of the airflow's way.

An SATA DVD Burner would help my cause too. :D

But I'd like to see some more tricks w/o cutting more holes for wire routing than the 2 that Antec provided in the MB tray.

:toast:

About having both SATA and IDE. I used what I had to work with. IDE. I got one IDE cable, and my 120 gig hard drive and my dvd burner on the same channel. SATA drive shelved.
