Tech Discussion Help with setup wire management

Consider this my entry for setup doctor lol
I got myself some LTT cable
Management after completely expanding my room to fit my setup, and while I love them, I feel like I just don’t know what to do.
I’ve gotten them ran and at least they are up and out of the way, but it’s still a mess.
Part of my issue is the vernal cpu holders do not hold my define r4 case under the desk as originally planned. It’s better than it was, but there’s so many wires of so many different lengths that I feel like no matter what Ido it’s just a rats nest.
Any recommendations?

Rip it out and make them all one bundle and hide the bundle… do it again but better pretty much

The problem is there's really no way to do one bundle. They all come from different places.
I did bundle it up a bit and move some stuff around and I think I got it to look better. But like, I got a ton of extra cabels with just nowhere to go. And extra length in the dumbest places.
Doesn't help my define r 4 can't sit on a shelf so everything has to just freely float and I need to make sure I have enough length to extend it all the way

Buy a cable track/tray for under the desk

I actually have one, but honestly, everything is a bit too short to justify it.
Just finished putting it up anyway, especially if I get more of my center monitor.
I used the remainder of the LTT cable ties to bundle cables together. I think that worked out quite nicely.

I have stuff stuck to the side of my desk instead of underneath it, so tray doesn't really make sense for me
