After=Top Before=Bottom After some cable management, computer is look better. Main thing I did was cut a hole on the panel that the motherboard is on. It was a tight fit in the back with the huge 24 pin ATX power cable. Case is the A+ Tagan Black Pearl.

I kinda love how roomy this case is, especially for a mid-tower. Between the 5.25 bays and the 3.5 bays there's another 3.5 caddy that I don't have installed because I don't need it. Less air flow is blocked this way. The neat trick is that you can take that second drive caddy and stick it on the floor of the case between the PSU and the other drive cage with just 2 thumbscrews. This photo also shows off why I need a different motherboard before I consider adding a window to the case. I could have gotten one with the same chipset in black (from EVGA instead of Gigabyte) but it didn't have USB3 I think part of the reason it feels so roomy is that it's one big open area, vs the sectioned layout of my college-era computer and it's Silverstone case.
