I also have an antec900 and yes, compared to other cases, the wire management is pretty shoddy.

It isn't that bad, the mobo tray has pre-cut places through which you can route wires behind it. Clearly it isn't excellent, but if you don't want to cut up a 140.00 case, then it gets the job done.

Mine had a solid mobo tray and I had to drill holes.

Ok, well..... last night, I was having an issue getting the ATI drivers installed.... got tired around 3am ish or so, called it quits. Tried again this morning, and worked like a charm. Not sure how I am gonna like this 64 bit OS though.... SATA DVD burner might not be supported.
Also, last night, I bought the download of 3DMark06, and I have run it 3 times so far.......
1st try - 6600 - last night
2nd try - 5500 - last night (after a reboot)
3rd try - 5790 - after successful driver install this morning
I am still feeling really tired, and I am at work now, so I am trying to think if there was anything I forgot to do last night when doing the install and everything. Do those scores seem right?
