Hi guys,
here is my current set up -
i7 2600 @ 3.4GHz
8GB DDR3-1333 memory
OCZ Agility 3 240GB SSD
2TB Western Digital 5400rpm HDD
Blu-ray disk drive
MSI Z77-G45
2x 2GB EVGA Geforce GTX 660 Ti in SLI
Hauppauge DVB-T USB TV Tuner
Corsair CX750 750w PSU
Zalman Z11 Plus case
Not a HUGE set up but it does take up quite a bit of space and there are lots of cables lying around..

I know buying a case doesn't solve everyones cable management problems, but I really do believe that if I had better casing, I could do so much better!
For example, the zalman z11 causes problems when you try to close the side panel and there are cables that are stopping it from closing because of the lack of space at the back, which is why I had to put all of the spare sata/molex cables in the bottom right of the case.
Anyway, back to the whole point of the thread..
A case I had my eye on (when it's back in stock) is the Coolermaster HAF-X Nvidia Edition case. It does seem a bit 'fanboy-ish' but I love the colours and I'm planning to buy power connector extension cables which are green and black so my rig will be mostly black and green, it will look awesome! (I hope)
So yeah, heres my choice - http://www.scan.co.uk/products/cooler-master-haf-x-nvidia-edition-black-green-full-tower-case-with-usb-30-w-o-psu
Anyone got any other thoughts?
Thanks!
