While cable ties are ok, they are a pain if you have to remove them and you risk cutting cables, etc. What I actually prefer using in my cases is 2 sided velcro. You buy it and cut it to fit. With this, you can quickly and easily open it up, add a cable to it, remove a cable from it and you are back in business.

I prefer cable ties as well since they come in all sizes, are unobtrusive, can be found in many colors and thus able to blend in, and they fit anywhere - this makes them perfect for cable management.
And since they're inside your case, I can't imagine them needing to be removed often, but.....
You can also get cable ties that can be removed, they have a "clip lock and unlock" feature, so when and if you need to change psu's or add a second gpu or so on you can remove them AND re-use,so you never need new ones.Unfortunately the only ones I saw so far were to big and bright yellow.
Fair enough. While my velcro only comes in 1 color (black), I simply cut it to size. You can make it skinny if you want, or leave it wide. If you have 2 short pieces, you can stick them to each other to make a long piece.
They aren't removed often. But occasionally I need another power cable, and have to pull one out of a loop behind the hard drive rack. And I've had to swap out a failed power supply before. And I've removed a mobo to install a heat/sink cooler which required undoing some cables.
I just threw the velcro out there as an option. As a previous zip tie user, I'd never go back after using Velcro.
If this helps, you can also get multi color velcro cable ties. That is what i use on some of my cables. i will post a pic when i get the chance.
