tips for tidying up cables and such

Can anyone give me pointers for cleaning up my cases appearance and getting the cables out of the way. I have rounded IDE cables, but the power supply and other stuff still looks bad. Thanks in advance.

You mean like dusty and stuff?

Well... the best way is to take out every single part of your system and clean it GOOD with a small brush or dry cloth and a hair dryer... like always...

wake sure u wear an anti-static band on your wrist to avoid damaging components.

I think maybe he means to make it look show worthy, the last time my mom made me clean her pc out(it was all gray inside) one of our fuses shorted and we lost our power, it was scary cause i thought i effed up her pc.

I've had good success using those nylon "pull-ties." Come in different colors, sizes, are non-conductive, cheap--- and if ya need to free up a tied cable for use, etc., just snip-em and go. :angel:
