Wtf is up with computer builders?

[0roo0roo]

Hah nice...some people in this thread will pull their hair out @ that i imagine

Them asian friends. Although honestly I prefer that showing up in my feed as opposed to girls I used to know's vacation pics... makes me feel like a creep and at the same time unaccomplished.

My HTPC's wiring is pretty good.

Edit: I'd get a picture of my main PC's wiring, but I can't pull the thing out far enough.

I don't bother with cable management.

Your case has too much black.

Girls love my black computer.

Once you go black you never go back.

:hmm:

Why would I care. I just plugged everything and it worked. It's worked ever since.

 

[irishScott]

Mine. Nothing flashy, but all the airways are clear. Small case too, so only so much room to work with.

 

[Bateluer]

If your case is small enough that neat tidy cabling makes a cooling difference, you probably need a bigger case.

You're never going to get laid with messy computer wiring. Chicks look at stuff like that, man.

Meh, I'm an efficiency freak. I also like using pointers and compiling even when it's completely unnecessary.

 

[Sephire]

ahhhhhhh

this. as long as it works i don't give a shit.

 

[waggy]

when i was younger and would brag about my computer to my friends i cared. Now? meh i would rather have another beer and talk about something else.

long as it works i am fine.

 

[Possessed Freak]

When I had a desktop, I never cared about cable management. That thing was tore down and upgraded, reconfigured, swapped, whatever countless times. Cable management would have just pissed me off.

 

[spaceman]

gaise i thought u might like to see my cable manageement skills

 

[lxskllr]

I like neat cabling. I don't go overboard with it, but I keep everything neatly stowed. I also like side windows, but I haven't had a side on my computer in a couple years. I took it off to do some work, and never put it back :^D

 

[JackBurton]

Why are you on Facebook?

 

[PottedMeat]

people put pictures of their computer innards on facebook???

 

[sdifox]

2 criteria for my cable management.

Is it long enough?
Is it interfering with fan operation, as in is the fan blade making contact with the wire and making noise?


Other than that, I don't care.

My PC looks pretty awful on the inside, but it works and there's no window on my case. I was actually surprised at how little the cables affected the cooling and such. From the stories I read here I half expected my computer to not boot until it detected zip ties.
