That is actually pretty neat.
Just tie the cables to other cables or drive bays.

Maximum I tried tieing lets see whether I can do more

That's okay, tru to route those cables from behind the motherboard.

Bro I think my cabinet not that good for Cable management, I tried my level. Also all cables are little stretchy [barabar ka lenght me hai

] ll this create any issues to PSU

The CM 430 Elite doesnt have any cable management scope as such.
Try to tuck everything behind the lower HDD cage.
How are the temps ?

U r right no cable management
As u said everything is tucked in

Here are the temps

that's perfectly okay.

@nikhil Good bro any advise

@harshil thx bro

yes yes ill give you advice . first of all install the odd at the top and the hdd at the bottomest point.....then try to route the 24pin mobo cable .. ant the cable which is there at the top from back side of the mobo try by taking out the other side panel ... and yes the fan cables they look ugly so u gotta route it from the bakcside of the fans to make them invisible ... try to route the front pannel cables and the power button cable from the backside of the bottom fan //// and remember the main rules of the cable management is try to hide cables not to show them so u gotta have to work more on it rather than only my piece of advice ....and yes always try to explore more in the world of computer ....

thats very short 24pin cable.. which CM model is the PSU??

even if you had cable management in your cabby, it wouldnt be of much use coz the cables are short. Very short.

Its the CM Extreme power plus 500. Ever since I read that it is in blacklist, I wanted to change. Once I get a new GPU that time I ll get a new PSU [Corsair] then my cables would be long I guess.

Edit: the bottom fan is in inward flow is that okay

That is why its wise to spend a bit extra and get a cabinet with cable management cutouts and options. Otherwise you are better off with Generic ones with a side fan option. But for a CM 430 without cutouts you have done a great job.

BTW the one below is mine....... :-D

BTW I can post a tutorial on cable management if I get time and if you think it is required.

sure... it'll great to have a tutorial on cable management.

I think no one noticed a pack of Silica gel sicked inside the cabinet.

Post the tutorial bro.

Silica gel really

Post the tutorial bro.

I'll surely do it. Currently I'm occupied with college work (project and seminar) which I don't like to compromise on, so there is a lack of time for a quality tutorial with all the pics. I assure you that once I'm done with the college work, I'll be writing a tutorial on cable management.

There is a small white packet on the left side, below the fan. That's the pack of silica gel. It was lying around so I thought it would be nice to stick it up in the cabinet. I wonder if it's really helpful.

Guys Can i use your pics for my blog..will give the credit..
