Sharp eye, yes the cable above the GPU since the fastest SATA port is there instead of bottom.
Now here's the answer for the harddisk:

Now what I want to know is, what is the best sleeve sizes you guys usually use for PSU cable sleeving for best "covering"? I used 2mm for that 24-pin cables and still can see the cable colour...

Try using more thicker sleeves

Also , don't look for sleeving that can be expandable.They have tiny holes that still let you see through the old cables.

U can try separate the HDD to let them 'breathe'. The cable below HDD can do more better. Just my opinion.

It looks already okay IMO.

HDDs don't get too much hot.In this case , the large 200mm fan will keep them pretty cool.

Can't really do nothing when the cable for a low end PSU is really short , maybe just wait until you upgrade to a full modular PSU tongue.gif

Its gonna be great if some one can bulk or sell grommet/rubber.
Sure many ppl looking for it and would buy it thumbup.gif

A bit hard to bring in cause all rubber grommets have custom fitting dimension for each case...

Only alternative for now i think is those white corner plastic thingy...

Nice one , though if the USB3 Bracket cable was a bit longer , should be able to route it with the PSU Cables also.... laugh.gif

that card not heavy meh??

It is quite heavy , even when you hold it for yourself..

But the motherboard won't be taking much of the weight...


Also extra feature that the HAF X offers a graphic card retention plate , so lessens the pressure exerted on the MB.

Looks neat ,

But one thing to add , why you put the HDD at the bottom and why not at the top?
You could just run the cable for the HDD straight back behind the back.

Yea , your kinda right , especially when the PSU is located at the top part , and the spacing between the back panel and the left side panel is really a small for large cables to be routed.

Nah , don't think you need to change cases yet.

Good news for Corsair PSU owners, now you can buy individually sleeved cable kit separately.

RM3xx for AX1200 i'd say quite worthy, considering the cost needed for sleeve+heatshrink + time for the whole sleeving process.

http://www.corsair.com/power-supply-units/...ccessories.html

Thumb up to Corsair for listening to buyers.

High quality sleevings , as expected from Corsair laugh.gif
Thx for the info

Agreed, but I usually use twist-ties instead, so I can open them up and retie easily if I need to tongue.gif

Velcro does a better job , but you spend a bit more...

But hey , it's cable management... lol
