Nah first reply was basically what I'm looking for: Tower cable management.

Was really looking for specific advice on how to position cables and just general tips on case air flow etc etc. Just bought a new case, I have a 120mm intake 120mm exhaust and I usually get more fans than just the two. So naturally I'm more worried about case ventilation and I hear cable management is important in this respect.

1x120mm fans (+1 PSU fan) should be more than enough for most towers and rigs. But cables shouldn't be a big problem because 1) hopefully you have SATA HDD cables and 2) you should be using round IDE cables. Neither of those types of cables should significantly harm the airflow.
