What’s the recommended size of cable ties to use for computer cable management?

@@Cap0verkil I used stuff that was approx 10cm but any size is good if you have a cutter. If you buy small ones and you have a larger mass, just zip tie one to another to get a longer zip tie! Make sure they’re black though :)

I have had my PC for 6 years and gone through 2 complete upgrades and still have been putting off cable management haha, mostly because I have a small space and it gets cramped quickly.

follow your manual

😆

One issue: only black zip ties are UV stable. the other colours could have an issue with getting brittle over time.

@@wolphin732 True, but my PC is inside, protected from UV by glass in my house windows-I assume this is true for the majority of PC's.

@@gordonwhitlock9697 Some White LEDs output some UV light, and some people use UV lights in their make, for action with UV reactive fluids or covers.

@@wolphin732 They produce it but it's blocked by the shroud and a yellow phosphor layer. The only LEDs that emit meaningful UV are designed to emit UV light.

@@AnarexicSumo used small black ties everywhere. If you want to cable identify, place a cable identified tag at both connector ends.

Last week a spent a couple hours managing the inside of my case and felt great to get it looking nice, but the back panel side looks like trash so I want to start over again

i work on cars usually. big clunky parts. building a pc for my daughter is a nightmare! everything is so fragile and small.... 😭

Same. That's what we get for being cheap

Me: cries in tight budget

There are plenty of cheap Modular PSUs Out there tho‘. Considering you don‘t buy a cheap no-name 1000Watt for 10$ Bullshit PSU, which no one should even consider....

Need a quality 100$, 650 watt 80+ gold fully modular psu? Warning this thing is insane just look at the reviews here: Phanteks AMP Series 650W 80PLUS Gold

can anyone help? i need my psu to go in from the side instead form the back in like the video demnstrates. for me this is not possible because the mounting holes are obviously smaller so it is not possible to put in the cooler from the back.

I second this. Corsair spec 04. 4x LL120. Rgb strip. Fan hub, commander pro. I've gone through my case so many times to try make it cleaned and easier but so far it's not happening xD

Lots of zip ties and velcrow straps. Some cable harnesses might be good too...

@@Klffsj I'm using pretty much every anchor point. Zip ties for bunching cables. Vstraps to lock it tight to the case. Even my OCD is struggling xD

Yeah Cable mgt isn't difficult in a case like above or even a good budget case that has been well thought out and leaves you space to manage in (Phanteks P350x)........But for the first time builder, who hasn't thought how important the case might be in terms of making the build easier and airflow, and bought a budget 50 quid mid tower case that already includes a couple of RGB fans, because they want to spend that extra money on their cpu or gpu. So they end up trying to do their first time build in a case that has no headroom to run cables over the top of MB unless you try to run them before fitting the board, where the 2.5inch SSD mount is inside the case and your 3.5 is in the shroud bay, a case that has less than a 1cm gap between backplate and back cover, and the cables that are already in the case are a mess (weird lengths) before you start building. Not to mention that the standoffs for the motherboard don't quite line up no matter what you do. Then you have a non modular PSU running Sata to the inside SSD and below to the HDD and molex running to power the fans - THATS THE BUILD I WANT TO SEE CABLE MANAGED LIKE A PRO. #ChallengeJayzTwoCents

Tips for a case with no cable management: Route thin cables (i.e. front panel, maybe fans, etc.) behind the motherboard. Linus showed me this, and it's an awesome trick. If there's no tie points for zip ties, make some. Route visible cables along the edges of the motherboard for the cleanest look...but before you install everything, install the motherboard, and mark pairs of holes in the motherboard tray along a track just off the edge, where you want the cables to route. Take the mobo out, drill the holes, clean up the shavings, and use black nail polish to cover the bare metal of the holes. Put zip ties through the holes with the "hub" of the zip tie on the back side. Size the holes so the "hubs" can't fall through the holes.

haha. the best dad ever.

This will never get old

And a gallon of thermal paste for each time we breath

Add the case fans/case that pull air from the 5th dimension that GN did a review of and we got a winner

@@martinbraathen7734 technically not even the commander, he just doesn't like the way they work their cords. The commander just happens to have a lot of them. Just honesty; not a bad company or bad quality, just sub-perfect cord accommodations. 🤷‍♂️

@@martinbraathen7734 I had 3 Corsair LL120's 'cause i thought they looked nice. They really did but because of their crappy proprietary connectors and the lighting node pro + fanhub they came with, the cabling was a hot mess and the node pro & fanhub took up so much unnecessary space. Ended up selling them and getting some non-addressable RGB fans (as i always have static color anyway) and they came with standard 4-pin that connects directly to the mobo. Also saved me from having to use iCue lmao iCue is great, in theory, but a lot of the time it works like ass, like most RGB software

Ye my fans are messy af I have 12 impossible to manage

I literally did that my first time too. Now it’s kind of a fun… I embraced the nonsense hahah 😂

This will be me. Never ever built before but plan to for my next rig. One thing scares me the most - fitting the processor. I already have nightmares about bent pins / dropping it etc.

Hey, I'm about to do my fourth build (well, actually upgrading my current system from Intel to AMD, which means a lot of tearing down) and I'm quite nervous still. But it gets easier with experience, you just have to start from somewhere. You'll be fine, I'm sure of it.

@@littlerugrat6107 just wondered if he got shocked and died. I'm kind of worried that there has not been any update for quite some time. Shall we commence the mourning?

Where to stuff it??

That was my initial wish too... But after a week of building (parts delays), I can appreciate how stable top down connectors are. I'd be afraid right angle headers would snap. But you can always get a cheap right angle cable.

@@Crunchifyable2 that was second wish. Honestly with the tech , I don’t see why they couldn’t put all connections on the backside. I mean, all wires in back with the exception of cpu fan. 🤩 that would great.

I just wish the lancool 2 I’m building had a 90* plug on the usb 20 pin. Drove me nuts looking at that big plug sticking out everywhere.

@@jordantrujillo293 yeah that thing has no bend to it 😂

​@@mrknowz5121you got your wish lol

Not to mention angled SATA plugs-the connector type whose fragility Jay makes a point of mentioning.

Or by their real name side cutters

you can add me on discord if u need help. be careful mounting CPU. thats the most dangerous part to install. as far as destroying stuff. make sure you reference your mother board manual.

Tom Engels same, I built my first system two weeks ago and spent about four hours crying, drinking and trying to puzzle through video guides attempting to wire together a nzxt aio and case

@@lonefrontranger first system is always stressful.

Tom there is no way around the fact that good cable management takes time and patience....LOTS OF IT. Jay condensed 2 hours of work down into a 30 minute video. His effort was directed towards cleaning up the component side (read motherboard) of the chassis. And in this respect he accomplished his goal. However the back side of the chassis while acceptable left a great deal to be desired. There are clips that can be purchased to fasten cable bunches in a straight row to make them lay flush. If that is feasible Cable Bunches should be organized in rectangular or circular configurations. For low conductor count cables if you have an excess length to be managed find a round about way to the connector using right angle bends. Doubling back on a run looks amateurish. Obvious there isn't much one can do with an excess length of a 24 pin cable. That will undoubted have to be packed in the bottom of the case. Tucking the excess in a drive bay is one unique trick. As I want to keep this type of bundle as far out of sight as possible I look to locate it as deep as possible inside the Power Supply Bay. In short while Jay did a good job accomplishing the goal he set for himself I can still see another 2 to 4 hours that could be devoted towards cable management on this build.

He did not mean the cable, he meant the connector on the HDD.

@@theone320 uhm no 7:25 "your moving cables around and you could potentionally break the plastic piece on the sata connector" says that while he's pointing at the cable so no, he didnt ment the hdd itself

@@Matt___B No, I just watched it. I means that the male flimsy piece of plastic of the HDD can "break off inside the sata connector". The Sata cable has a female end and the male plastic piece of the HDD goes into that. If you are not careful, it will break of inside of the cable head.

Did have my boss too? Had a job where I had a customer remodel their office, add several rooms, all into a new server room. Converting them from 100Mb to 1Gb networks. Had 5 switches with 48 connections each full and a 6th to connect 5 servers to the rest. This was when 1G was new. Took 2 days in a room with no ac to punch the panels and run all the cables. Zipped up nice. By 3 months all the switches failed and recalled. Got new switches but the ports where not in the same spots. Had to cut so many zip ties and replace cables with longer. 🤬

I order my zip ties in 200k units

Then your boss fired you for using $9206 worth of zip ties... Just kidding XD

@@Tigerskunk That's why I recommend velcro straps more than zip ties. Zip ties are better for smaller bundles of cable, but they should definitely be limited when cables are likely to move, especially since you have to be careful about cutting wires by accident.

@@Klffsj I agree but work only had zip ties. But I use velcro alot now.

If your wires are creating heat, the gauge was insufficient for the current load being drawn/supplied.

You couldn't have used a different analogy

Luke Miller nah that worked.

@@sidranshu All wires create heat. It's just an issue if they create TOO MUCH heat.

@@xenonram yes, very true. Thanks for the clarification.

I've pulled off some pretty clean cable management without space behind the motherboard. Look up some cable management videos from circa 2010 before having space behind the motherboard became common.

you can still do it. i did it to my case back in the 2000s. sure it doesn't look this clean, but there's always some things you can do :P

i feel like alot of people bring up the back compartments but i think the number 1 game changer for cable management is the fully modular PSUs because it allows you to see where each components' wiring will come from, typically i like to go "bottom up", installing the components one at a time and running the necessary wiring based on where they connect on the psu. You wouldn't start typing a paper in Word in the middle of a page half way in the center. you start at a "corner" and go from there because its easier to streamline the information

scratch that, just got to the 4 and a half minute mark and he basically said that's what he does too, much easier process if you have a fully modular psu tho

Simple, use the DVD Cage and the hard drive cage to your advantage. That is how I cable managed a Dell Optiplex gaming PC, I removed the drive cage and essentially used the DVD cage as my Cable Management Center from where the cables came out of.

Yeah my case came with some and theyre great

But zip ties are significantly cheaper right?

@@calvin. you can get a 100 pack of velcro straps for around $12.50 and they are reusable

@@Digitoxin1 u can also get reusable zip ties tho

Just like mine. After I installed a noctua cpu cooler I stopped caring how it looked

I'm guessing you live in a small town too… That's the kind of excitement we have to go looking for 😃

Check out Optimum Tech's video on high end fan comparisons. I was really hoping the super expensive, fancy magnetic levitation fans would be on par with noctua.. but nope, lol kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h92Wp7l-rLazmX0.html really want to get the arctic p14 fans though, to upgrade from my current phanteks ones

@NonLegit Nation what, the arctic ones?

@NonLegit Nation Ah, I've found a place where I live that sells a 5 pack of the 140mm's for like 30$, probably gonna get them. Currently using 6 140mm's, 3 exhaust and 3 intake, and they get pretty loud

on lowest rpm they're louder than be quiet silent wings 3 at 100% rpm yet they move around 50% more air but at 140% higher fan speed

This is probably a late recommendation but the msi B550 A pro is a great mobo and not to expensive. Would definitely recommend!
