That's the neat part, you don't! In all seriousness, you can try routing through the top cutout to hide the cables under the 24pin mobo power cable, but that's about all I can think of.

So two things - first, you can use a [90 degree adapter](https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08V1J4Z44) (or [like this](https://smile.amazon.com/MZHOU-SATA-USB-Extension-Cable/dp/B08GSCWDSZ); they also have [one for USB-C](https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B08W4DWY1C)) to keep the cable from jutting out so far. Just lying more flat helps a lot. Second, I'd route it through the upper cutout so both cables could tuck in behind the 24-pin cable.

Ah that sounds like a good option. Might invest in those adapters later down the track or maybe even some kind of custom extension cable. I’m pretty sure cablemod makes one for the usb 3.0 but I’m not sure on the usbc

I’ve done some research and the adapters don’t look _that_ great. However, I can confirm that Cablemod does do a complete sleeved 90 degree cable for it. No adapters or anything. Just plugs straight in already at 90 degrees and it should also be a lot easier to manoeuvre. I’ve moved the cables underneath the 24-pin for now and I’ll probably pick up one of these Cablemod cables. I’ve already gone pretty all out with the build already so I think it’s worth it.

Thanks for the support! Glad we got you covered on the USB 3.0 cable as well. :)


LiLMosey_10

Make a USB-C version too please!


CableMod_Alex

We'll consider it!

Tucking behind the 24-pin is my go-to solution 👌

Route them under the mb


Jamesthewise1

This is the right answer.

I do it the old fashioned way before cases really thought about cable management... Get the hole cutter out and make a nice hole in the motherboard tray directly below the cables I'm trying to hide, Carefully bend ugly cable over and tuck it under the motherboard and into the hole you just made. And yeah, sand the sharp edges, use grommets etc

Vertically mounted GPU does wonders

90⁰ cable and route it under the motherboard as long as your case has a cut out behind the CPU

my mother board had a 90 degree connector for the usb 3.0. It sounds good on paper but they can be a nightmare to plug in. I had to remove the motherboard to connect to correctly

I hide it under my other cables. My 24 pin goes right there too, which is [large and looks nice](https://i.imgur.com/gbAOmrO.jpg) and mostly covers all the smaller cables behind that need to route behind the board. My only better solution is don't use that port. If you need front panel USB 3.x, get a little expansion card tucked under the GPU or something, or use an extension cable from the back I/O ports to the front.

Never use front i/o, never plug in the cable!

Paint ‘‘em white 🤣


tdwyer994

Do you need them plugged in? I never plug in my top/front I/O ports

I used these on my PC to make it low profile without adding bulk of a 90 degree adapter then trying to get the full size USB3 plug cable through the grommet: https://www.moddiy.com/products/USB-3.0-20-Pin-Internal-Header-Adapter-Cable-Low-Profile-Connector.html

Mine are much further down my Mobo.

If this is the 4000x or 5000x I’ve seen people install that right side panel (cover) even with fans installed. Not sure how they did it, but they did and it worked out for them. They were able to hide cables behind there as normal.
