Zip ties is about as good as you can get from cable management. Just stuff the cable at the back of the case.

I personally cut out all SATA & molex cables and made custom length cables. I'd only do that once your PSU is out of warranty.

Okay, thanks. Is it possible to get a 780 in the build I have without breaking $1800?

Do you need it in first place? GTX 780 cost at least $250 more from that GTX 770.

Are you using triple monitors, 3D monitor, or ridiculous high resolution for gaming? Another thing you need to understand is that enthusiast grade PC parts deprecate faster than mainstream one (GTX 760 is what i considered mainstream).

I do want to max 1080p on most if not all games. Do you think the 770 would suffice?

Even 760 is sufficient unless you crank AA all the up, which doesn't improve graphics that much for 1080p.

I'm using HD7870, which is even weaker than 760 by about 20%, yet still game just fine at 1080p.
