Cable management exist for another reason dude

case airflow and cooling effectivenesses ...

Seems like people are too diverted from origin of cable management ..

Updated with new goodies

@karthyhu
Thanks ....

@nles
The trick is easy just slight the crossfire bridge pass by the fins from the side .. that's all .. wala .. no rocket science approach ...

anyway i'm using non reference 3870 which is an inch shorter than standard 3870 ....

@JamesWannabE
Thank you,

@LExus65
hehe, I love the way it is right now .. and some how moving the sc to top slot eliminate buzz noise during VoIP conversation.

Temperature wise as following:
3870 CF Setup

CPU 34-40c
GPU 1 40-54c (HIS)
GPU 2 33-37c (Triplex) [Not sure this is correct or not]


@rainingzero
Bro, AC products are the cheapest u could get for silent setup ..

two AC S1 just = 1 Retail Thermalright HR-03 series ...

Same goes to AC Freezer 7 Pro ...

However performance isn't half of those monster air cooler while still keep things silent..

I've got two of the article fan for low RPM type .. mean no PWM..

It has good static pressure compared to Noctua .. the only downside it could be used as exhaust configuration only...

hahah damn nice airflow static ... and silent ..

but only few model would be so nice ....

Sim Lim Square at Singapore. ..

There's two shops that carry those fans ....

I've got two of these from SLS...



AC fan

hehe . yah it's low RPM version which mean low noise as well ..

I've not tested it with Noctua head to head ..

so not decided which one to use ...

@tomatos
Because of it's weak static pressure, airflow has bounced affect caused reverse airflow ..

@Bigblock
Not bad ... well done ..

@Bigblock
If u are really serious of getting your cable management done well..

sleeve all the cables with single color for consistency or sleeve it black to make it stealth ...

try not to spiral your cables ... coz it would make the cable more visible ...

sleeve it and align it between different component to hide it or make it less appealing .

btw, got 'Duit Kopi' for revealing so many tips

@pmmonkey

I think u have done the best job with the case and ur hardware configuration for cable management ..

It's clean and neat ..
are u still using IDE cable ??? if yes try get rid of it ...

then that fatty ide cable would not spoil the whole look ...

@pmmonkey

If it's hidden, I won't spot it men ..

I've short eye sight ...

you could get rid of the sata power cable issue if u build the power connector from scratch and connect it to the 4 pin molex power connector ..

It's not so hard if u have understand enough how to do it

and just take notes of all the steps as u progressing such as labeling wires, putting sleeve or heat shrink through wires and etc ..

do it one step a time and verify if it's done correctly before proceed to the next step ..

hmm .. what make u so confuse dude ??

care to elaborate ??

I think it's straight forward nth rocket science difficult ...

hmm go check out at a shop nearby ATE .. .they sells sata cable at different length and connector angle ...

or check around LYN bulk order ... try to find those that about 90cm long ..

@victor1987
It's done well ... bravo..

Probably just need a bit of PSU sleeving and top notch job done ....

hehe .. nice execution .. and clean cable management.

Like u said, get a sata burner to kill the IDE cable ...

btw, nice shots with ur Nikon D80 ...

@seanl

Your words make lots of people jealous ohh ...

but luckily not including me coz I'm D80 owner as well ....

arr .. really want to get a new case and mod it gao gao ...

hohoho .. between PC-07 and Akasa 62 .. .

I would rather go for Akasa loh .. spacious and loaded with features ..

the only sad thing is no vibration absorption HDD cage ..

else it would be a perfect one ....
