  1. Just finished rewiring my mid-tower build and I'm unreasonably proud of it. Everything runs behind teh motherboard tray, a PSU shroud hold it all in place, and you can finally see teh components instead of a spaghetti mess. Show me yours! Especially the back side, since that's where the real story is. I learned alot during this build, mostly by making mistakes and redoing things. Happy to share what worked if anyone is about to start their own.

  3. check that the back side panel closes without pressure on teh cables. A bulging panel can stress connectors over time. hope that helps :)

  5. lol same thing happened to me velcro straps beat zip ties cuz you can redo them without cutting. leave a little slack near connectors so they arent under tension. good luck man!

  6. I'd argue custom-legnth cables are overkill for most builds. good routing with stock cables gets you 90% there.
