Anyone out there with a _'party in the front/disaster in the back'_ kinda rig? 😅

[Iconiic]

Honestly learned so much and I’ve only been around for about 7-8 months. If you ever wonder if you’re content is enjoyable, the answer is yes. Great job, keep ‘em coming

Greg if he had the money and time:
Welcome to our new Playlist, where we fix the cable management worldwide, making the whole world have finally an organized setup for the cables, no more messyness, no more!

An often overlooked advantage of good cable management is that it makes keeping the PC's interior clean a whole lot easier.

Another viewer here that has learned SO much from watching your videos. When I built my first PC in 2019 it was disgusting as far as cable management goes. Thanks to all your PCDC videos I gained the confidence to reroute and tidy up all my cable management and it made a huge difference in aesthetic. Keep up the content Greg.

Cable management has always been a nightmare for me. I've built a few pcs and I always try to keep the cables organized, but I end up (fairly quickly) giving up. Maybe it's patience thing. Also, I am about to build a mini-itx on meshlicious. Just waiting for parts to ship from US to Brazil, where I live. Maybe this will give me an extra motivation to do a nice cable management, since it will be my first itx build and I've heard they are quite hard/stressful to cable manage.

This playlist is a very nice idea! I know for sure when I first started my PC building adventures that I was no master at cable management, but with this sort of demonstration I'm sure lots of people can get a few ideas about how they can make their rigs pop. My Corsair 750D is definitely a 'party in the front/disaster in the back' sort of deal.

I quite interestingly always route my BIGGEST cables first, as I find them to be harder to run through things when all of the small wires are already in place
I had a very efficient and head ache free time doing all my cable management with bigger cables first, smaller cables 2nd
I guess this shows that what really matters is having a PLAN for it and it’ll go well

My build is in the same Fractal case. I know the difficulties associated with building in that case. Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do. I revisit my cable management every two or three months just to see what I can do better. My next re-do will be to replace the psu with a modular design unit to reduce excess cables.

[aceutopia]

I got that exact case (in gunmetal grey) and motherboard, and slapped together a budget pc with it. The one big complaint that I had was where to run the cables so that it looked clean. This video is a tutorial for me now. Appreciate it. Keep up the good work :).

[DarkHorseCom]

I just finished a build in this very same case. Nice to see the similarities in cable management. Good job Greg.

[shaunc]

Greg, I really liked this video. Thank you for the follow through. I will watch this series if you continue to run with them. Keep up the good work.

[HarrytheUnlucky]

Black cables look so clean, glad my desk hides the see through panel. My ketchup and mustard are hidden in the dark.

[ErelicGaming]

I wish I had known your philosophy of the small wires first and large wires last. I have an 011D XL with 10 fans with 2 wires each and 2 fan controllers. I feel like my cable management is like 75% good but with your skills could be 200%. Once I watch you do some more complicate me builds I’m going to re-do my system. Thanks for this video 🙏

[skipatrolslayer]

Hey, this is the same case that I have! I'm gonna rewatch this tomorrow when I have the time and energy to actually do something with the information lol. Thanks for this Greg. :)

[PulseGamingRd]

Loved it! So satisfying watching you cable manage! 👀

[deviousnate]

The Focus G is the case I chose for the build I did for my brother a few years ago. Budget all the way with a Skylake i7 and a used 1060 6gb. For the price I really liked it. My cable management was somewhere in between yours and your client's.

[joonmirvae]

I hope case manufacturers will sponsor this type of videos for people who have outdated cases to help them and promote their case with great cable management capabilities.

[SirDaffyD]

Another great video Greg.
I upgraded my mb from a B450 to a B550 about 3 weeks ago. I front side cable management looks the bees knees, but the back side a couldn't be bothered about.
After watching this video, you've guilted me into cleaning that up now. So I'm off to now do it. LOL.
Keep the great video's coming mate.

Loved this video! This is the same case that my wife has and after watching this I am going to redo the cable management on it. Seeing how you routed some of the cables I see where I can clean up a couple areas where I had no clue how to run the cables where they were not as visible. Really looking forward to seeing more in this series!!!
