hahahaha bro..you can join cable management club...there many forumer can help you to manage your cable...
btw...look very messy & a lot do cable management...
my advise...for exhaust fan..you can connect to mobo 3 pin power fan...and for HSF you can route back your mobo tray...

why dont u connect ur 3pin 12CM fan to ur mobo... u can hide some of the wire edi...
if i'm not mistaken.. ur casing has a hole where u can masukkan wire behind the mobo plate...

my advise... start by going to the hardware store and get 2 sizes of cable ties... small and large.
next....unplug ALL ur cables. and remove them out of the casing. this includes removing ur power supply out from ur casing. the front panel headers can leave it on.
then plug in ur fans. rear fan to mobo. wrap the cable around ur fan first if possible then plug it in to the nearest header. next is ur IFX fans... same thing..wrap around the fan then plug them in to nearest header. remember to put at least 1 in the CPU header. the top fans leave them alone first. bottom and front fan, oso leave it alone first.
now re-install ur PSU. next to the PSU is a hole on the mobo tray. cram ur 24pin cable in there. same goes for the 4/8 pin atx cable. and every other cable u can possibly cram in... u cram in then route them properly and plug them in the appropriate place.
the balance of the cables, hide them in ur ROM bays. but keep 1 molex cable at the HDD area. plug ur bottom and front intake fan to this molex cable. 1 molex cable thats in the rom bays, plug ur top fans into it.
as for side panel fans... plug it into the molex cable in the HDD bay or something.
as for the cable ties earlier, use them to secure the cables together. ull know where to use them once u start doing the management
