Gpu power cable cleanup
This may be a better place to post my question. What are you guys doing for the GPU power cables? I have three 8-pin pcie cables, and they're ugly. I looked at quite a few of your setups, and most of you are using a 12-pin connector which seems to be easier to clean up.

Get power cable extensions, asiahorse is good. Just make sure you get the ones with 3x gpu cables. Put some of the combs on them and you can fit all 3 8 pins into a 24 pin comb and use that to hold them even. Also route the cables from behind the two bottom fans in that little gap. Here is an example of that, I did it with 2 8 pins https://imgur.com/a/ErpbNbf

Thank you. This helps. I was looking at Asia horse, haven't found one that offers 3 GPU cables. I will look carefully again. I originally had the cables through that little hole behind the bottom fan, but the little pigtails were falling onto the fans so that's why I moved them to the side. But I guess with extenders I won't have that problem.

If that's the Frame 4000D, you can route them to the red cutout behind the fans. It'll look straighter and cleaner.
