So after a lot of saving and effort, I finally got my PC. I think i went a little bit over the top with the specs, but im happy with it. My main issue is that the cables and the tubes for the cooling seem really odd. 
My Card is EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 8 GB FTW3 ULTRA HYBRID GAMING.
My Case is NZXT H510 Elite ATX Mid Tower Case.
And as the CPU cooler I have an NZXT Kraken X62 Liquid CPU Cooler.
 
The only option I had was to put the radiator from the card on the back, it's working well, but the cables look super bad, I've been trying to find a tutorial or some guide to make this better but its impossible, so I would like to see if anyone can help me out trying to fic this, because it looks really bad. I have uploaded a pic that might give a little better context :)

Thanks in advance!

    Are you talking about cable management or water tubes? :)
    BTW it seems that you installed RAM incorrect: it could be that you are sitting on single channel. Memory slots should be A1-A2-B1-B2 and it is recommended to install dimms both in A and B - A1-B1 or A2-B2.
     
    PS my case:

    Water Tubes, sorry you are right its not cables. Yeah, that ram thing was also a thing in another forum.
     
    That build looks sick!!! That's definitely a great way of setting it, the main issue is that I cant out the radiator on the top :(
     
    Also by any change did you changed the default fan from the card? I didnt knew that was possible, and wanted to see if an upgrade was a good idea

    you can turn the radiator to make a big loop in the hoses - then remount it.  Try clockwise & counterclockwise to see if one way looks best
     
    Yes, you can change the radiator fans - many member like other brands for sound quality or Airflow changes - some run them to the MB

    Or you can use 2 fans for push-pull configuration and best airflow, but it is better to have similar fans.
    There is 8 screws to mount fan and radiator: long one to mount fan (that actually already holding stock fan) and short one to mount radiator to case.
    But you can mount radiator to case through fan with long screws (for pull configuration) and you can actually mount fan with sort screws. Or you can leave stock fan, mount 2nd fan with short screws and mount fan in case with fan screws.
    As for tubes - you can try to push CPU tubes up instead down. Also you can try to point gpu tubes down like this one:

     
    And yes, you can should try rotate radiator to get best layout.

    I must say that cables on your system not look bad at all.
    Much much better then tower coolers. 
    And you will be much happier during gaming then with air cooled CPU and GPU.
    They are flexibile and you could change position of tubing but don't put much pressure on them and that's it.
    Only I believe these new Lian Li PC-O11 Dynamic would give you better options for AIO systems. But even now is OK.
    Think about that in future.
