It looks to me like with the pci-e wires, the bottom cards plugs are coming in ontop then going under. I think you just need to play around a bit with how they lay with each plug and each wire. You will get it

but you know if you get bored of that you can send those cards to me

[ShoNuff]

I was just thinkin' about you brother! I asked Shoggy if AC would make a Delrin top for my Cuplex XT DI and this is what he sent me. He said André from http://shop.anfi-tec.de/ also sells the tops in white.

You had me at the Austin Martin a few pages back. Glad I was around to watch you create this masterpiece.

@ShoNuff -- Damn that Delrin AF tops looks great on the Cuplex XT DI.. always wondered how that would have looked like.

I mush prefer the solid top on the HD then the XT since i don't like the (tealish color of the clear top).

@theseeker - At least everything is up and running and no isses like last time...

I personally think the wiring looks less clutered now then the previous install with all the cables a solid black.

I think the PCi-e and ATX connectors look fine and I would just try hiding or rerouting the CD and HD cables a bit and I think it would look great.

@theseeker

maybe something like this would help you with your cable problem. I had the same problem with my Lian Li V2010 build (and it's pretty harder to route cables on the back of the motherboard tray since the space is very cramped)

[theseeker]

Thanks for the input. I have taken it apart yet again!

Some day you might get to play some games on that beast

Until he gets it the way he wants, it would just drive him crazy while playing.

And lets not forget the "Special Sleeving Dust" that Charles puts on all of his sleeving packs that has this strange ability to transform a normally sane person into a sleeving maniac.

[NaeKuh]

I wanna see more pictures of your dogs. :X

I think you have the nicest pair of shepards ive seen in a while.

No sleeving this time around John. I will be using the "flex-force" Ultra cables for a while. I think Shazza nailed it regarding the sleeving. It is not no so much the color as much as the texture of the sleeving. So I will wait until Nils provides me with something better!

Thanks NaeKuh! They are from the Czech Republic and they are long coated GSD's. Here you go...



They love raw bones!



They have very white teeth!

[headala]

Nice dogs (and grass!)

Ours is really sick right now (both dog and grass)

Sorry to hear that Alan.
We feed the dogs and the grass organic food-only!

Nils, send me some nice deep blue sleeving, bitte!

Hah ... and the teasing continues (I didn't see a loom for weaving new sleeving in that fantastic new workshop where Charles is confined).

Shazza,
Please give Nils some more ! He totally deserves it.

Very frustrating.

Rocky,

Looking at these pics i'd say it's the sata and sata power cables messing up rather than the pci-e cables.

The res maginifies the cables to make matters worse.

I'd say turn the hdd's around so that the connections are hidden (at the front of your case), re-route the sata cable for the optical drive so that it is coming in from above instead of having it run down below.

Also, let the 8-pin powercable come from behind the mobo- above.

That will make it heaps more clean.

As said, the blue is a nice touch but a darker shade of blue would look better.

Strange thought but maybe you could try to spraypaint the sleeving prior to sleeving?

Good luck man, i'm convinced you'll get it worked out.

[Kozato]

How about mounting the hard disks vertically? Then will be able to route the sata data and power cables down using the holes near the front io connection module of the tj-07.

[InfinityNX]

To add to that, you should try to route the GPU power cables behind the reservoir, might be a cleaner look.

[headala]

Or maybe shorten some of your cables? Just kidding, looks great! I do like Infinity's idea about putting the cables behind the res...and they might look cool distorted through the res!

The HDD connectors are in the front of the case and those cables are easily re-routable and not my concern.

The 8-Pin is routed behind the MB tray. The big problem is the 24 Pin.
Spray paint the sleeving? Surely you must be kidding!

The most HDD's you can mount vertically is three and that does not look good either.

Doing that amplifies the problem and really stretches the cables.

Alan, I will probably do that with the Flex-Force cables until Nils sends me his new "secret BLUE sleeving." For the time being I will be using the Flex-Force cables so that I can play some games and actually use this beast!

Thanks for all of the input!

[dingdong555]

I'd have the 24pin cable come out from the mid tray hole, have it behind the PCIe cables.....then have the SATA cables BEHIND the res (If they bend enough, if not get some 90* connectors)

Thanks James for the input. The SATA's are not a problem, those are now hidden. In the case of the 24 pin, I don't have enough room through the midplate. Remember that I have a Feser 120.4 under the backside and little room for wiring.
I will post some pics tomorrow with the force-flex wiring which I will be using until I get the Area-51 sleeving from Nils.

Rocky I will be saluting your M-M Jr build tonight with the Aberlour 12yr. Hell I might have to salute it several times.

Thanks John! I will salute you back with a Longmorn 16yr. It just arrived today and it has been on order for 2 months! Which means it could be a bit older.

This Aberlour is sooooo smooth that ice is all that it needs. I like it a lot better than JW Black, thanks for such a great tip.

[shazza]

Stop it, you guys. You're making me thirsty!


Lookin' forward to seeing the Ultra cables installed (so put the Scotch up, please )
