it's alright...overall sort of neat .. it would be better to use Sata connector rom and HDD .. make cables less visible ...
the only thing i'm not getting is why everyone these days choose case with PSU at the bottom which would make cable so visible and difficult to hide.
in a way, its actually better to have the PSU at the bottom. the PSU will intake purely cool air and not hot air from the processor.... might help prolong the lifespan of the PSU with better cooling.
also with the PSU at the bottom, u get better stability with the casing coz most of the main weight (i.e. PSU, HDDs etc) are usually placed at the bottom. so its harder for the case to topple over compared to the weights being on the top....
but wat i REALLY dont get is, the case makers that makes casings with PSU located at the bottom, and boast about cable management features. they KNOW that the damn PSU cables wont be long enough. yet they still dont wanna include extensions into the package. to me thats just stupid.
also, i had a chance to work on the new CM ATCS840 case recently. helped my friend transfer his rig into the case and do the cable management for him. ive said this before and ill friggin say it again.....i HATE modular PSUs. doesnt do jack for cable management like wat most people think. he was using the enermax liberty 650w psu.
all the cables was so ridiculously short. not just the 8pin atx...but also the PCIe cables

and not only that... the cables at the PSU plugs area were so messy with all the stupid cables coming out from all over the PSU panel!!! thats the stupid part about modulars... if i had a non-modular PSU im sure that the cables will be slightly longer. and also the PSU area will be MUCH neater seeing how with non modulars all the cables come out from ONE point and not all over the place like stupid modulars.
ugh...i friggin hate modular PSUs... cable management my bontot la!
