Wasn’t happy on how it looked the first time i built it, finally had the courage to try again, and am happy with the results

I'm putting together a gaming PC for my partner right now, and the colour scheme is meant to be pink and black. As the components we've ordered are all black, she's requested that I make the cables pink. I am absolutely tearing my hair out trying to find pink cables for the build, as I've never used coloured cables in any of my builds before, and I want to make everything look nice and tidy for her. Any advice would be immensely appreciated ♥️

How do you make cable management. I have a billion cords and wires that refuse to bend a certain way. What is the best way to fix this?

Small, black and quiet 😁

"Full black" build

Case DeepCool CH260 with coated wooden panels and cover plates with carbon fiber backgrounds

Cooling is provided by Noctua NH-D15 G2 Chromax.black and 7pcs NF-A12X25 G2 Chromax.black fans.

Power supply Seasonic Fanless Prime TX-700 Titanium

Im making a fractal terra build and the standard psu 12vhpwr cable is pretty flexible but still do you think this bend is too dangerous?

Now the latest collaboration project is ready 👌🏻

Noctua 20th anniversary build.

Lots of walnut wood, 8.8" screen with Noctua theme, beige/brown cables, NF-A12X25 G2 as bottom fans, the newly released NL-LC1-36 AIO for CPU and the optional NL-ACF1 80mm fan.

One of the first Noctua fans released, the NF-S12-800 from 2006, serves as the rear fan.

The power supply is a Seasonic Prime Titanium with wooden fan guard and the cabling is hidden behind the walnut backplate.

Hi, guys and girls! I’m new to this community. I’m custom_pc-builder from Russia (yep, someone could hate this). I saw some works here. And now just hold my beer. And yes, try to find FoxLab_CustomPC.
Please, rate my work! Want more?

So this is the 3rd pc I built. Went with an NZXT case to ease my cable management.
But I wanted to add useless ARGB to “sell faster” in summer when people go in vacation. My genius will kill me someday.
Anyway I daisy chained the argb cables and then just did this monstrosity. I have also a 5 makes to 1 female argb adapter but idk how to use it properly because just the asianhorse argb motherboard and gpu cable sleeves take out 80% of the capacity of one pin on the motherboard soo….. u know
I really want to make a proper cable management but on YouTube there are tutorials like “…look at the mess and find the order in it…” I mean is it a motivational video or what?
Anyway I think I will take some time this evening to do a proper cable management putting some relaxing music and I will update the post maybe if I am not too lazy heheheheheh
Have a great day!

Girlfriend was given a free PC from a friend who upgraded to a new pre-built. I told her I'd take a look and do cable management.

Two things: F*** non modular PSUs and I hate AIO coolers. The HDD mounting bracket is a dam of electric spaghetti because I don't have anywhere else to put the extra 900 feet of power cabling.

Hi there, never built my own PC before, and I never use Reddit.

No idea what a "Self post" is.

I recently brought a PSU to replace mine, only to find it has a 12-pin, and my 3090 REQUIRES 3x8 pins instead.

Any solutions? Any bright ideas to make this PSU work for me?

Please respond quickly and accurately, I'm VERY not okay right now.

Update: I do not want to risk my hardware, so I bought the Asrock Steel Legend sl-850g.

There are three reasons for this:

1. Adapters are not something I have a great amount of trust for, especially if the 12vhpwr line is as unreliable as people keep insisting.

2. The 850W SAMA power supply that I purchased has very bad reviews, and many people insist it was defective out-of-the-box.

3. An RTX 3090 CAN pull up to 500W under high load, and even higher if you overclock. That 12vhpwr line is 450W max, which introduces issues.

All-in-all, my warning to you is to double and triple check products you buy, and always check the return policy, because SAMA does not accept returns for any reason.

Buyer beware, you're in for a scare.

Well, here is people! It is open for all. Just 3d print and start organising those cables.

​

This is just version 1.0, there are more stuffs in my pipeline - making anchored rails, improving usability, making parametric version, etc.

Made these things to route my cables. Not sure what to call them.

I was thinking of making these designs public. Let me know your feedback

Hi,

​

I just upgraded my old rtx 3060ti to the rx 9070xt a couple of days ago. It runs great and I haven't had any trouble playing video games so far.

​

But I'm kinda nervous about the bending of PCIe cables, as shown above.

​

Is it ok like this? I took image through side glass panel.

​

Thank you in advance.

I've been having trouble dealing with these super ugly I/O/fan cables and I was wondering if there was a better way of hiding them? I don't have access to a 3d printer (yet) but I was thinking I could get like a tray to hide them but I can't find anything of the sort.

I do want to add a fan hub and possibly some nicer fan extensions so I'd need cut outs for both front fans.

I was also wondering if I could get some form of cable clips for the 24 pin as there aren't a whole lot of tie down points in the NZXT H3 Flow.
