my tip n tricks.
1. eliminate ribbon cable (eg: ide, floppy) at ALL COST!
2. shorter cable not equal to better management.
3. use a small buzzer if possible, don't use the one in the case.
4. Consider modular power supply when buying PSU.
5. Use a big hdd instead of many small ones. (unless it is wd raptor or ssd).
6. Use as little device as possible.
7. For non- gamer, use the graphic card that doesn't require extra power cable.
8. Sleeving cables is good at most case.
9. Find a good mobo layout that suit your casing.
10. don't connect the front panel connector that you doesn't use. For me it is the firewire connector and the audio connector.
11. Remove anything that is unnecessary. for me it is the hdd cage, case handle.
12. Cables can't be perfectly hide, so minimize the amount of it!
13. if possible passive cool your computer as much as possible and avoid extra large heatsink.

ya but then the topic will be very confusing. special for sff is easier to discuss and improvise sff cable management. i know general discussion include cable management but then no ppl will actually response to a post. and i want ppl to post the pics here too.

choose PSU wisely, modular cable is necessary.

custom the cable length if got skill and dare to void PSU warranty.

choose sata cable length and angle correctly...
