The point of a window side is to show off your computer. Your just showing a bunch of wires. Not voting until i see some attempted cable management!!

Put some more love into your rig....hide some cables behind the motherboard tray, tuck the larger cables up top your in the drive bays. It would really nice if you painted the interior. Nice first build 5/10

Cable Management

OK guys, c'mon! this is my first case. B softer on me. I will definitely try to hide most of the cables behind the mobo if I get some spare time and then I will upload a pic to show you the proof. Satisfied?

Its understandable.. I mean, with all that excitement in seeing how will the PC perform, looks will always be later on for starts. Just browse around and see what cable management option fits your case. I remember my first build before (Celeron 333 rig) and I didnt mind the clutter.. all that I wanted was good fps on Half-life and quake2 ^^

Definitely clean those wires up!

Zip ties/Velcro rolls work wonders :)

Most posters aren't making fun of you, they're giving you advice as to what you need to improve on. :)

nemesis is right-the case is supposed to show the others what´s inside in the mean of components not messy wires!...do a clean-up man ....don´t you feel sorry about the rigs you have people?You all want to ¨fine-tune¨the rig´s aspect and you add neons,fans,LEDs etc. but you seem to forget about something really important called:CABLE MANAGEMENT-1 of my PC´s I personally own is a P3 with no transparent glass/neons/fans on the side but when you open the case you will definetely see cable management to improve airflow(even if it ain´t overclocked and if it doesn´t especially need it but it´s about the aspect the rig has when you open/look at the case.....

Well there is a little cable management and there is room for improvement... however I have to say that for a '1st'.. not bad...

My first build back in 1997...ish when i was about 9. was little more than a server case with loads of scsi drives and a few funkyish lights,
