So it looks like you have what, like 2-3" of 24pin cable left? I see your 24pin connects horizontally, instead of vertically. I am wondering if I will have enough slack to get some cable combs in there, I might have to order a 700mm cable.


EDIT: Also, my Corsair AX1200i probably will have more cable too, since my 24pin is on the right hand side, looks like the EVGA ones are on the left, so it takes that much more distance to reach the motherboard.

Ya, not sure exactly how much slack I have, but I have a little bit of extra 24 pin cable.  Oh, and this EVGA 24 Pin cable is 600mm just so you know.

Yeah, 600mm is pretty standard for ATX, guess I will have to see what I have to work with, would like to dodge having to spend $50 on a new 700mm ATX to get hte look I want haha.

Sorry man I thought since he said you did I only assumed you did . I may try later on to re route it but for now it's functional .

Here is my Rig, DG-86 built today. The 24 Mobo pin for me had to be routed to the front on a 750 Watt EVGA, Gold I think. Another weird problem I am having is trying to plug the molex fan connector into a molex power wire Causes the PSU to immediately stop, and will only start for brief pauses and remain off until I reset the power or CMOS. Ill try a different molex wire and in a different PSU port later, this took me about 4 hours to do and I'm wiped.

Like everyone else, I'm still tweaking my build.  I have all of the components installed, but I'm still working on the finishing touches like LED strip placement, cable management, etc etc.

Speaking of which, does anyone have a good suggestion for the best place to place an LED strip?  Thanks

Pic 1: the big box! See that brown thing next to it?  Yeah, that's a full-sized saddleback briefcase (it can fit a 17 inch laptop) so yeah, the box is mammoth
