One word: cable management. Needs a bit of tidying up. Take a peak at some of the systems posted. There are some amazingly clean wiring jobs. Go look at the CrystalClear system for a good example. Definitely the right direction, though. Nice work on drilling the side panel for the extra fan.

Eh, Hardcano 9's have an insane amount of wires. They require like three wires per fan, it's insane. Although I do believe he could do better, but it's going to be hard with how many wires that fan controller uses.

By that do you mean water cooling with UV dye or painting bits and pieces with UV paint?

I wouldn't go water cooling with a case like that, it's too air cooling oriented. As far as UV paint goes, go for it, just don't paint the entire frame of the case some UV color, I hate that.

Try routing the wires behind the motherboard, cut a hole or two if you have to. Lengthening wires in order to route them in a more tucked away place helps too.

No no no I meant behind the motherboard mount. Not actually behind the motherboard itself. Like this:

As you can see I had to cut a 2" hole in order to get all the wires behind there.
