Running cables neatly is essential for safety and efficiency.
I’m not sure what to do; everything seems chaotic. I’m struggling to make it look tidy and need guidance on organizing cords.
Zip ties and a do-it-yourself midplate. Simple and straightforward.
Yes, zip ties are very helpful. I helped a friend recently build in this case. The photo is my first attempt, and then I realized the power/CPU wires were long enough to route behind the PSU and over the top. You have a lot going on by the way. Do you have SATA drives? I would disconnect the SATA cables if you don't need them. Luckily my friend didn't need a GPU, but that wouldn't have complicated my build a whole lot. Also, I do not recommend negative air pressure in a small case. Which means you have more fans sucking air out of your case than fans putting air into your case. I would suck air from the bottom since it has a filter and then change one of your fans to exhaust. You are going to starve your PSU and CPU cooler of air with your configuration and it will run hotter. Looks like you are getting ready to install a GPU in that thing. Will you have enough clearance with the PSU that far down?
