I saw some rig with neat cable folding. And I do fold them when possible.
I would say folded cables are better then Rounded, but not better then SATA. You can route sata anyway you want the cables are flexible, thin and narrow, they can get through holes and such and are easily tie wrapped.
Also I will probably go with the P5N32-E SLi
As you can see the placement of the IDE is so ackward, it wouldn't look/be good at least near the motherboard.

The power cables sucked because they were all wrapped, and I added in a second DVD drive so it doesn't look as neat...but to give you an idea of what can be achieved with a ribbon cable:
It's possible to see where the IDE cable connects to the motherboard; under the main ATX power cable it wraps around the motherboard tray. The area at the optical drives could probably be cleaned up with about 10 minutes of work. I'm not very clear as to how you think SATA cables are better than that.
yay i ordered one last night
