Kids Immaculate Wiring

Are there any articles out there that show how to hide or organize power supply cables as best as possible? I currently have mine sleeved, but I wonder how the guys at Voodoo get the case looking so clean... Any input is appreciated.

just being neat and useing open holes in the case to route the wires . there cases might have slot built into them just for the wireing being they sell alot of them . also there is a limit to how much airflow you can acheive from neat wiring . at somepoint it stops helping ,.

I don't know about how they do it but I use black electric tape to tie the excess wires to something. Perferably to something that is good to hide behind. Use all the cracks and holes I can find to shove wires into them without hurting my components. Its all about being creative. Sorry if this doesnt help you with an article, but its all I can contribute to your quest for a tidy case

Ive got a ton of zip ties, but I wanted to get the cables as invisible as I could get em.
RituallyPure, Im just goin from what I've seen in the MaxPC mags.
Thanks for the pics Sam, I'll try somethin like that. I've got the same case, so I may do something comparable.
