great help you are  shakehead.gif

@Mr.Ben for the Aerocool Stike x Advance has gromets that enable you to hide the cables very well behind the mobo tray.. however you only get 12mm (about half-inch) of space between the back of the mobo tray and side panel.. tight fit for the 24-pin if you ask me.. even the reviewer has trouble getting them tucked away http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Aerocoo..._Advance/5.html

Personally, if you like the styling, go for it... feature wise... they could've done better on the CM part.. also the feet and side facing HDD bays would be a plus

ops my mistake , its aerocool strike x one advance. and btw is there a budgeted case <RM 200 with a good cable management, air flow, enough space for long graphic cards and big cooler fans. and mayb even with a side window with 1-2 fan? biggrin.gif

hmm... if you look at the picture of the chassis.. there is not much room between the mobo tray & side panel either.. and this one doesn't have rubber gromets

a budget case with good CM... you could try taking a look at the Cm elite 311 plus, Xigmatek midgard II and Asgard pro, bitfenix shinobi window but the side panels on these will support a maximum of one 120mm fan .... personally I don't like having fans on the side panel as there is usually no dust filters there

fans on side? is it a bad thing? cause i wanna cool down my gpu, and i heard sides blows towards the card> blink.gif

well cooling wise it will help a lot, especially to the GPU.. but I'm considering other side effects such as the dust and noise that is contributed from having fans on the side panel  sweat.gif

my suggestion is that you leave the side panel alone and only add fans if you think the GPU needs it.. that way you won't regret having to remove them later

Looks like 431P. Don't bother managing cable too much with this casing, at least settle for a 300R for decent cable management. (decent to the point where you can hardly see anything)
