There really IS an art to this, isn't there! When I had some problems I couldn't solve years ago, I brought my PC to a good shop. The tech found the problem with his diagnostic software (now I keep a fresh update of Hiren's Boot Disk, with its dozens of diagnostics close at hand) and put everything back in such a way that I didn't even NOTICE the cables, much less worry about them blocking one of the fans! (I have four fans inside my case) To this day, I've never been able to get them that neat!

I'll second that! Overbuy your power supply (THAT was the problem I was having that I couldn't solve! I had added more peripherals and it was draining too much power that I didn't have to spare,) and as long as you have room for it, get the biggest, best case you can! More room mean; easier heat displacement, easier component swapping, and less chance of something shorting out something else!
