Any suggestions are welcome. Thinking about getting the NZXT Premium Cables like lots of others. Can't be bothered painting cos I couldn't paint properly if my life depended on it. Don't personally think that I could make it any neater if I tried without some SERIOUS modding involved to which I also CBF'd with. Next upgrade is more Noctua fans all over and the Prolimatech Super-Mega CPU Cooler. Various benchmark results of this system can be found here --> http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=126696 . MORE PICTURES TO COME SOON.

I will give you a 6 for encouragement. I think the Cable Management holes are a great idea. I just think you need to finish them with some U channel. Possibly bring in some sleeved wire extensions and it would look fairly awesome. Possibly some black inside paint too????

Other then that WTG.

These cases are really well built. One of the sturdiest cases I have ever come across, hands down beating anything from Lian-Li and many others strength wise. Easy stuff to access, excellent looks, awesome moddability, the case is indeed win for me :-)

whats the 4 side fans like what comes with this p.c case like for cooling on air ?
I like what you have done with mounting your P.S.U on the back of the p.c case no screws
I do this with my p.c.s so i can get my P.S.U out fast when on the up grade

The 831 SE does not have the 4 side fans. My mate has the 830 which does come with them, if you have a large tower cooler, the fan above it has to be removed. Personally, the 831 SE whilst not having as much cable management options, seems to be better built, as the 830 seems to have more plastic parts. The PSU on my case is just normally mounted. There are screws.

Top case, don't know what sort of moronic moderator banned you and for what, seems pretty harsh, you have put lots of info people use on the forums, no one appreciates anything these days i guess, oh well top build, is amazing how tidy it is considering how hard this case is for cable management

2/10. Very ugly Cabling. Old looking components. Poorly executed and just very ugly looking case mod.
