Sully' asked how to _hide_ the power wires J-dogg, not make an ugly mess of them

Sully - sleeving makes them look better, you could use spiral wrap of split loom instead ... as for hiding them, you just have to try & route them so the excess is hidden, usually between the motherboard tray & the side of the case, or between the side of the psu & the case side.

Which way up you put your psu can also make a big difference to the tidyness of the power looms.

I've also seen hard drives mounted backwards in their cages so the connectors are hidden (I think Clown did this).

Basically, it's hard work (or at least very time consuming) getting your wiring looking good, & the ideal solution is going to involve shortening and/or lengthening the wires. Take a look at http://forums.pcapex.com/showthread....threadid=12126 and http://forums.pcapex.com/showthread....threadid=12142 : I made no effort to hide the wires in that example, but it would have been just as easy to get the wires the right length to hide.
