Used a shower cable and pulled it apart for a smart cable wrap! Be careful and bear in mind it is metal! you dont want it shorting your case out. time and care is needed as the metal is extremly strong and tough to get it around your pipes/Wiring. Also I sound proofed the whole case with dynamat.

Built this machine around a year ago, Have upgraded twice. Waiting till early 2009 to see who wins the war!!...ATI or Nvidia. Have been an Nvidia fan for many years but I have a feeling something big is approaching soon! I'm Mad for cable management and this is my best effort yet. Still a few Wires to hide away. Oh and by the way the "FF" on my post code LCD stands for....F****NG FAST!! lol Well to me anyway! If like my case please give me mad Reps and I will check out your Rig. Any comments are welcome!

Lol Thanks mate. I love the case! And the PSU is tucked neatly away behind the top HDD cage. Which is a shame because is a gorgous brushed gunmetal silver.

220mm fan in side panel

how did you get the 220mm fan in the side panel? do you have any pictures of how you did that, i have recently bought the armor LCS case and would love to have that additional fan, any help you can offer would be wicked
