Full RGB is cable-fest and USB internal ports... AIO, Fans, RGB controllers, PSU managment, front panel = 5 ports, so you need hubs...etc

Putting water cooling and fancy lights in a case does not make it a gaming PC. Change my mind.
GraceMcClain
Getting the upgraded version of that first case in two days. Very much looking forward to building in it :)
ScottRaiford
I'm currently building a fully-custom case. There are so many damned cables!
technicalfool
And this is why I have a giant case. Yes I really did bungee the reservoir in. Noise isolation is a thing!
DaveSauce48
Some of you don't remember the days before round PATA called and it shows. Cable routing in modern cases is a godsend.
RustyMcKraken
IF that rat nest ever shows up at the computer shop I work at...I'd have to manage that wire mess for my own sanity.
Harvgreensburg
I went full-modular to avoid cooking spaghetti and this is STILL true!
djangojazz
Mine actually has a nice bottom section for that. Also buy a modular power supply and only use the cables you need.
SoopahFly
This is the way.

Lyle not appreciate the mess. But he clean because Kyle disappointment for whole family.

I'm the back and my wife doesn't care.
imadorablepleasehugmeandbenicetomeillappreciateit
because for her you look like the front
WolfRamX4
I mean, unless you very specifically plan it out, they will *not* be straight and line up together. Not like it impedes airflow anyway.
amdkenobi
My rig is in a case from the mid 2000s. I own my wiring mess with pride!

The same reason the inside of a human body looks insane.

himisti
Isn't that kind of the point? What would you supposed to do otherwise?
technicalfool
Cable management. Or at least get a case big enough to let air flow through the scramble.
himisti
Yes, exactly. The case is designed to hold all the stuff the in the back. That's why I don't get it.
trickflo
That's more managed then my lump of cables with the back panel jammed on top.
TheFastpaws
HA! Bold of you to assume I could afford an updated PC!

I saw some company advertising all over see-through cases on Facebook. They admittedly look good but you run into the obvious problem as >
Quessir
shown in the OP - and coincidentally, none of the advert shots showed any cables. Just clean builds with RGB. They cost a fortune, too. Nope
agermanguy
I don't care anymore if it looks neat. You need a cable you get a cable. Rats nest with enough airflow to stop it from overheating.
WhatzitTooya
My case is a black box with zero windows, but I still made the cabling look neat, cause I *know* it's nice in there now.
Turkleturts
This. I'm looking at the monitor, not the case. Function > Form.
modus0
My case has a mesh panel on the side mostly obscured by a big fan. I don't need to see inside the case.
KibouSRX
already removed the led on my gpu, now to find out how to turn off the floodlight that is my cpu watercooler
morelikeconsham
Don't really have a horse in this race, but it seems like this is a case where you can have both, and where tidy cable management even adds
morelikeconsham
a bit to the function element regarding maintenance and upgrades.
Justchillindylan
What you can’t see don’t hurt you
xj4low
That's why the rt side of cases aren't glass. I'm ok with this.
Everythingstaken0
Many beautiful works of historic art/craft look like donkey peen in the parts nobody is supposed to see.
BeerFueledAdventurer
But it will drive you crazy knowing about it...
BearableBear
Until you see it or guess what is to be seen.

I think someone just said Thunderfury, blessed blade of the wind seeker.

Having 16 mechanical drives in my case, this is very very much applicable ?
hakunamatatamotherfucker
Why do you have so many drives? Just get a nas or san for the love of porn.
NaughtButOne
It doesn't really matter which box you put the drives in, they need to go in a box somewhere.
sinskittles
Those just add a lot of extra cost to be able to connect so many drives. Much cheaper to just have it in one box.
navagon
Bloody hell. When you search for something it must sound like you're using a dial up modem that's been smoking 60 a day.
sinskittles
That's what good indexing is for. Thrashing drives to search for something is really inefficient!
cyno01
How do you do fellow datahoarder. I ran outa case. https://i.redd.it/9jsdo8194w691.jpg
sinskittles
At that point, I would just get a cheap 4U and either use those 5.25" mounts sitting in it, or a 32/45 drive backplane like Storinators ?
DespiseEveryone
Oh my god, do you have like ALL the porn? Can I watch it?
sinskittles
I was about to argue how long it would take to upload, but it would only take me ~70hrs to upload all 120TB of storage I have ?
sinskittles
Because the symmetrical speeds of fiber direct to house instead of fiber to neighborhood are just *chef's kiss*
Acc87
But seriously, for what legal adventure do you need that much space privately?
modus0
Could be content creation. 3d models, textures, WIP files, finished images, or snippets of video, finished video all take up a lot of space.
sinskittles
What illegal venture could use that much storage??? Rips of every blu-ray to ever come out? ?
