Ok, thanks guys. I have made up my mind to build it myself. What stuff do I need for cable management?

 

[flyerfox]

What about those sort of binders that can grip a few cables together?

I personally cheaped out and use raffia string.( Not sure if OK or not?)

You mean this type? The spiral cable? If you're willing to spend more money, they serve the same purpose too. Cable ties are the cheap option for cheapskate like me.

OK, think I'll just use cable ties. Seems like the most confusing part for me is the power cables.. got manual so I know what goes where? Are some of the power cables in series? Cos I see that he connects from one hdd/odd to another.

Definitely will. If there are any missing wires/connecters, take the PSU back to shop and ask for 1 to 1 exchange.
