ripken204 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 buy the 100 pack from newegg and just go crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ringfinger Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Which hundred pack would you be referring to? Because I have the same cabling nightmare inside of my box as well. I like the look of boxes like yours where all the cables are in their own "housing". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spazmire11 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 my personal idea is if it can go behind something then it will.also in some cases rounded cables may not be the greatest idea, flat and grey ones can do the job just as well if not better in some cases.there are other ways too but most of the time it is very related to the case you have.

puntoMX Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 (edited) You could use Tie-wraps, but I know what people like more. They sell it in a good hardware store (the ones for screws and bolds ), and the name Spiral-wrap.Just a link to get an image: http://cableorganizer.com/images/spiral-wrap-big.jpgAnd some more info: http://www.moddin.net/review.asp?ReviewID=144&PageNo=1(I hope these links work )They come in all kinds of colors, even in UV / Neon colors Edited March 4, 2006 by puntoMX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rendrag Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 try to group everything together, then velcro-wrap, or tie-wrap it off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 velcro wrap sucks for inside of case, not tight enoughhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16812999111here is the 100 pack, i already used mine up. i tied up everything in my room, its so much cleaner now. ill also get some more pics of my computer up, hopefully tomorrow. it looks even better now. what else is nice about that 100 pack, it doesnt matter if u have to cut a tie b/c u will have plenty left.

LLXX Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 (edited) I just use electrical tape to hold the wires in place and out of the way. It's cheap and works well. Edited March 4, 2006 by LLXX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ringfinger Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 (edited) Oh so you're just alking about good ol zip ties. That was my first idea on what to use, but then I see all these cases with big 'tubes' or a conduit so to speak with a group of wires in it making it look uniform, that looks good. But oh hell yeah, zip ties will work too lol. Edited March 4, 2006 by ringfinger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 i dont like those big tubes, they look pretty ugly to me. you can get some cable sleeving but you should still use zip ties with it. i have the ocz powerstream 520 and that is already sleeved so i dont need to bother with that.http://frontiernet.net/~ripken204/pics/comp/p180-3.JPGu can see by this picture how much cable ties can helpmine looks even better now but my parents are out of town and they took the camera this is the before pichttp://frontiernet.net/~ripken204/pics/comp_full.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 (edited) To tell you the truth, I use Spiral-wrap, tie-wraps and Mounting Bases ( http://tiewraps.com/mountbase.html ). Tie-wraps are cheap but to order everything from Newegg is a bit overdone, Ripken dude, I know you like Newegg but to promote it that much isn´t healthy (Newegg ).Edit: spazmire11 has a point too, and there are also mounting-bases for flatcables Edited March 4, 2006 by puntoMX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 i do love newegg, but where else can u buy cable ties that cheap? and ive never seen those mounting bases before, pretty sweet. i have been trying to figure out how to get a fan in my pwmic area and this may be the way, thx.
