does anybody run their wires behind their motherboard mount? I've been looking at your pics and the wires are everywhere, just run them behind the mobo mount and let them through when you need them, better than a modular :-D

Or you could just put wires in some of the bays you don't use. But I gotta say, they are a pain in the ***

Open the side of your case and use the Mark One Eyeball.

I drilled a hole in my case in order to do this. It's a bitch getting the side panel on though.:laugh:

Here (http://photobucket.com/albums/v511/wtf8269/) is my entire gallery, I don't have the link in my sig because that is with my old parts and it needs updated terribly. I'll do that whenever I get my new parts up and running though.

on my case um *looks* yeah i have all the wires tailing down behind the mobo but most of them are just zip-tied in a bundle behind my hdds. like in the above pic they would be sitting in line with the mobo tray blocking the fans out of view.

I just leave my top bay open and run my Opticals one slot down and have all my extras up there and out of the way, but I like wtf's idea and now going to pull the side off my case and see if there's room
