diz is d best i can do. cut a whole in the top 5" bay to pull all the cable from PSU to the right part of the casing which now, is superbly messy. but, nobody is gonna notice dat while the panel is closed, ryt?

comments are most welcomed.

thx man

but, how to reach 2d hdd's connectors if they are fitted the other way round?can lay no fingers coz the intake fan so dem near wif the hdd liao.

then it leaves me wif d 1st option ryt? I'm not sure wats the shortest length of sata connector available in the market. long ones do look tempting but once they go into my casing, how to manage em.

gez i should juz hide d excessive part of the blue sata connector to the other side. juz like wat i did to the upper sata drive. no point buying uv reactive sata connector then i gez.

gd morning guys. neway, last nyt I spent 2 hours to figure out how to manage those sata cable area. thus, i came to this kinda method.


i shorten the gap between those 2 sata power connector. thank God my Noisetaker's sata power heads are lyk the clip-ons kinda thingy. so, repositioned the sata hdd nearer and the measure the gap between those two hdd.


found another stock sata cable from Abit. I bundled it together and dat was wat I came up wif. Plan to sleeve the cable wif a black sleeve later on to look lyk this.

credits to Top Nurse from bit-tech forum.

any other brilliant ideas I myt wanna ponder about? pls do enlighten me.

Did some more cable management last weekend. even went to Jalan Pasar to get sum heatshrink, juz to find out later dat itz still too big when it shrink. Anyway, for the time being, can juz live wif wat I haf la ryt?



blue vantec sleeve to combine both sata cable.. blue heatshrink does not shrink enuff. sigh~


black heatshrink bought @ Jalan Pasar last weekend afta my PC Fair visit. Still thinks dat i need a smaller heatshrink to look nice..


haha, tried my best to sleeve like top nurse from bit-tech but, lotsa experiments haf to be done and experience to be gained 1st...

personally, i started wif an observation 1st. then kno ya hardwares (casing's chassis, cable length). then seek for options (the best way to smack ya cacings into the ryt places). then rely heavily on ya creativity.. uhuhuhu. I ain't paying to touch my lovely sweetheart's organs u kno .. my luvly Cavvy64 .

but seriously bro, u can start by observing other ppl's work of art. then add sum of ya own creativities.. dat should do. once u n ya sweetheart get along, u'll juz get the wisdom how to treat her..*ehem, u kno wat i mean?

wahahahah. like this oso can ar? got preview 1st or not?

Hi again guys. This time, I'm posting up my fren's TT Tsunami dat we worked on last Saturday.. here goes the before and after..

BEFORE



AFTER


Personally, I think dat white PATA cable should be change wif rounded ones... but datz up to my fren la ryt? btw, those sleevings and molex are UV reactive... but he decided to give me his UV CCFL.. not sure y but yeah, i got a new UV CCFL now.. time for me to pimp my pc back into the UV arena.. ahhahaha.

any comments are welcomed to improve the tidyness.. but I gez I haf to make my fren visit this thread coz I ain't going to Melaka juz to tidy up his cable... ahhahaha.. jk jk

kenot oredi.. coz the hdd IDE is not dat long, n already been twisted(to make it look round) by the owner. rounded cable indeed then...

he oredi gave me his ccfls... dat, I'm not sure y.. but he's not a UV enthusiast anyway.. r u, disket? he juz wanted me to spank all his cacings oni.. but for future expansion, make all the sleeve UV-ready.. ewah~

I wonder if anyone had tried to make their custom ide cable.. do u think it can be done? I went to n electronic shop @ Jln Pasar, found lotsa wide-cable-ribbon(the one like IDE cable) there.. any worklogs dat i can refer to guys?

p/s: i wonder if he wanna give a say here.. kamon baby, u can do it... kamon la disket.

finally, after long period of waitings... uhuhuhuh
woh, how come ya casing got 1 hell of a spacious mobo tray ar? or was it ya mobo is kinda small?

i can see a lot of cable ties involve.. not planning to sleeve, my man?
the molex for gfx card, y not connect it from the back of ya hdd tray? so dat u can also hide the molex for ya upper hdd, n ya intake fan as well.
the red sata connector, try reroute it to appear from under ya bottom hdd. as for me, i wud prefer for the gap between those 2 hdds to be clear.

gez datz all from me,till i haf mo ideas..

nway, nice neat mobo area man...

ee.e.e.e.e..e.e..e.e.exhaust? datz lyk the WHOLE 9 YARDS man.. ahhahaa.. so far u tarik ar? what i normally do wif the exhaust fan cable is to bring it to the back of the mobo via the gap at the PSU area.. then, behind the mobo, u can cincai bocai connect to any molex loh.

I support Doom's idea regarding the heatshrink thingy but u hafta remember 1 thing bout heatshrink, is to use proper size heatshrink to make it too nice.. if not, it'll be lyk the blue heatshrink i used for my SATA connector, which ianho once talked about. back then, i got not enuff heatshrink to play wif... ahahahha.

If I were u, I'll juz spray the ATA cable (UV mebbe) and drop some kewl stickers on it... it looks awesome to me already as, if itz in dark, it'll look like a panel... 2 panels in ya case....juz make sure it is straighten remarkably ar... uhuhuhuh. then stick ya computer sticker or wat not...since i think ya ATA cable is nicely position near the mobo tray liao.

if everyone can focus on the 2nd pic now... CLASS~~~ your attention pls... .. the Power LED, Speaker blablabla connectors can be sleeved lyk the those black heatshrinked cables u got beside em... sleek n neat.. black long heatshrink + grey short ones, juz lyk factory-sleeved..

but sum ppl juz dun wanna deal with the sleevings.. u kno laa, the serabut2 kinda thing... n put all the wire into it... then heatshrink pulak not tight enuff... as for only heatshrink, sum sizes, u dun hafta remove the connectors ryt? but that case, u hafta deal wif the sizes 1st la ryt..

@ianho
ya wireless rig is a real ....

but like Doom, i realy need to kno how u manage to BEAT the crap out of all those SPKR, HDD, PWR cables.... uhuhuhu

wahahahaha, datz 1 interesting way to put it sniper..

btw, Silon, your CACING punishment is better than mine laa..

dat freezer is indeed an eye candy, i hafta admit it as I still haf it in my collection even afta changing to SI120.. tot of building 1 silence PC later on..

to Silon

omg!!!! run guys~ run! the foams are back!!!! ahahahaha.. care to have a shot wif the side panel on then? as long s it looks good n practical enuff, ok liao~.. ahahahaha

yeah man, especially with the L size gfx card... uhuhuhuhu. i wonder, y didnt u sleeve the molex cable s well?

R u referring to Robyncom? My fren went there last week, he said they are renovating their shop... Dun tell me itz bankrupt liao leh... wo de Galaxy 66GT is still there.. uuhuhuhuhuhu. Nway, they are located at the same floor wif AllIT Hypermart, a the alley sumwhere back there...

i'm using my bare fingers oni to open the front panel woh... havin a plier is a bonus anyway... reduce the pain.. yet my fingers still get the job done... ahahahha.

and regarding the sleeve,u can juz use the typical sleeve to sleeve em.. but i'm not sure how will it look like exactly, in the end...

fish, er, no, i better call u ikan... aahahha. got ya black sleeved wires ready already?

i chopped off my previous blue sleeve and get em some nice sleeve n heatshrink on already.


Tadaaaaa!

well Silon, I'm happy wif dat SATA cable,but i dun c much space for me to manipulate the cable other than stucking it under the HDDs.. hence, the pic.


howeva, bought sum stuff from uglyvamp's BBS 5 last weekend, thus, juz wait for a better setup coming by... wheee~

b4 using uv tubes, juz make sure u got all those UV reactive components in ya rig loh.. datz all wat u need... huhuhu.
