Well, with my new 6800XT, which is nearly two inches longer than my 5600, I had to do a rewiring job on my computer once more. I tried to keep all of the wires out of the way of other things. I found a nice two inch deep, five inch long gap behind the 3.5" drive slots, and I put most of the wires back there. Need some advice.

looks fine

mine looks worse cause of the shielding that enermax uses its really hard to move the wires around.

Looks darn good if you ask me. One of these days I'll get back into my case and clean it up really nice. heh.. When I do, I'll post pictures.

Thanks a lot for the input, means a lot to me ^^ My compy is my baby after all. Also, another question. Is it okay for me to run the HD, Floppy, and CD-ROM all off the same power cable? The PSU is modular, and each wire that comes with it has 3 molex connectors and a floppy connector. To reduce the clutter, I ran all 3 devices off the same cable? Is this safe? Or should I throw in another cable to power the CD-ROM? I put a seperate cable for the video, since the PSU came with one specifically for that. Also, the PSU is a 24-pin BTX plug. The mobo is a 20-pin ATX. It came with an adaptor, but I really didn't think it needed it since the 4 extra pins just hang over anyway. I plugged it in without the adaptor, and the 4 pins are hanging over the left side, near the motherboard. Should I use the adaptor, so the unused pins are further away, or is it okay like this?

Looks good, you should see mine.
