The Disaster that is my case! UPDATE: Cables now rounded! B4 and after pix!

!
B4!


After!

I still need a bigger case so I can just tape/tie the cables to the back.

Has anyone rounded an U2W or UW cable b4?

Oniva is still out of stock on SX830, damn!

Whats wrong the the bezel, cooling must be a nightmare in that case (FongKai?) Some zip ties and cable rounding might help out if trying to get a neater case.

PLS notice the tape that holds on the front intake fan!
And its the only case fan too!

Damn amazon canceled my SX830!

I hate the bezel because it only exposes 2 5 1/4" bays, the dvd drive is recessed so it fits under the bezel, i hafta take the stupid bezel off everytime I want to use the dvd

Acutally cooling is ok, I run a 550E@733 and it is about 28C using an Alpha FC-PAL35T.

This stupid case if the FK-604 "SUPER MINI TOWER" I got it for free back when microcenter had the $400 etrade deal. I'm getting really fed up with the tiny case and the stupid power supply over the CPU.

I am going to round the FD and IDE cable but I never heard of anyone rounding SCSI cables.
