Awesome little machine. You should definitely be proud of the work you've done there. It looks mint! That PSU cable customisation must have taken ages. I like the results though. I hear it makes routing of the 24 pin ATX connector easier as you don't have to try and manipulate all the 24 wires as one big chunk.
I agree with the console comparison too. It's got the kind of power a current console can only dream of. Many console games compromise on image quality and lock games down to ~30FPS at times. With this little beauty, you have the best of everything. With a spec like that, it would even give my machine a run for its money, and probably beat it in non SLI compatible games. Drool!!!

Did you end up finding the shorter SATA cables you needed, or mod some yourself?

Great choice, I think it turned out great the way you did things! I've looked at round SATA cables, but I guess I just need to try them before I decide if I like them or not, they do look good though.
Awesome build, I'd be using some of your ideas for sure if I were building one of these systems.
