That one week where every single cable just vanished behind my NZXT case

Last month I spent an entire Sunday rebuilding my rig because I was sick of looking at a rats nest behind the glass panel. I bought a pack of 50 zip ties for $7 and some cable combs off Amazon, thinking it would take maybe an hour tops. Five hours later I had re-routed every fan cable, the 24-pin, and even the front panel headers behind the motherboard tray on my H510. Felt like a god when I closed the side panel and saw zero wires for the first time in 2 years. Has anyone else spent way longer than expected on a clean build just to end up with one stubborn wire you couldn't hide?

Man, I feel that pain. Five hours is a serious investment, but that first clean close is so worth it. Did that one stubborn wire end up being the GPU power cable?

Wait, is spending five hours on cable management really worth it when that case is just gonna get dusty and sit under a desk anyway. You could've been gaming for those hours instead of stressing over one wire nobody will see.
