Very impressive cable managing, I've never seen anything like it!

I didn't have a black one with a straight connector lying around
My motherboard came with about 4 right-angled black SATA cables and two straight black cables. I don't have a window (yet) and the way my desk is my computer would have the window facing away from me anyway, so it isn't really a high-priority issue for me.

Me again:P mind you last time I posted in this thread was ages ago and I've made quite a few changes.
Current setup:
AMD Phenom X6 1090T OC @ 3.8GHz
Gigabyte GA-990FXA-D3 motherboard
16gb 1333mhz ram
Corsair Force series 3 60gb SSD
2x 1tb drives for storage but soon need more >.< damn you harddrive prices
HD6950(flashed 6970 bios) and HD6970 in crossfire
2x 24" Benq monitors
Coolermaster Storm Trooper case.
Will update with pics as soon as I can.
Was best picture I could take.
The two drive bay clamps were a cheap plastic that broke as soon as they were twisted to lock in place so currently not using them, they just sit there for now.
Anyone know some good quality red clamps? (I prefer the screws then the twist/lock method)
I tried shoving the wiring behind the drive bay, but it was going to warp the back side panel no matter how much I spaced them out, so I just bunched them up with some ties and placed the bundle in the bottom on the case.
At the time when I was installing the graphics card I didn't realize how low I had set it and would have bumped it up a slot or two, but the small shields that you take out on the back are punch outs and I haven't found a way to put them back in, so instead of punching out another shield I just left it on the lower slot and took a look at the temperatures to make sure if the gpu was becoming too hot under load. (Reaches 70c so not worth making the case ugly.)
