I am doing some cable managing on my new build.

This case have nearly no space for back side cable routing, but I still managed to do it anyways.

So now I'm asking if there is any more room for improvement?

Case: SAMA P28-1 (cheap, but it is okay to me)

I think you can improve it a quite a bit.
-Try running the front panel/hd audio cables at the base of the case as one tight bundle, instead of then stretching across the mobo individually.
-You can also run the 4pin/8pin atx mobo cable right on top of the mobo and closer to the top of the case.
-Since your PSU is not modular, try shoving all the extra cables in that top optical slot so its out of the path of airflow. this improves airflow and they don't collect as much dust.

Its definitely a challenge and easier said then done but its still possible to make it look really nice. Just need to get creative. I hope you have a lot of zip ties.
