Explanation
A modular power supply is the best choice when cable management is a priority. Modular PSUs allow technicians to connect only the cables that are needed for the system's components, reducing clutter inside the case. This improves airflow, simplifies troubleshooting, and creates a cleaner internal layout, which is especially beneficial in home-built desktop systems. Semi-modular and fully modular power supplies offer varying degrees of flexibility, but all modular designs reduce unused cables compared to standard power supplies.
