Get yourself these. They're fantastic. (50 might be excessive, but you know you're gonna lose half of them)

Since you can't screw anything into the desk, here's what I would do:

Grab some of these while they're on sale

Then grab some 3M Command Strips to hold up some sort of cable raceway like this (Although you can probably find something cheaper than this particular one at Lowes or Home Depot.)

Or you could just buy a few of these

Or a cable box like this. Personally, I'd go with the box and velcro strips, since your tower is so close to the outlet. Unless you plan to relocate it.

But most importantly for college dorm life: 3M command strips are your friend for almost everything.

Let the cables go down the back of your desk and then strap them all to one and put like a cable housing

Edit: links here that I’ve used for building friends’ setups

Not sure what your board looks like but I always try to route all cabling underneath where possible.

Once underneath I use a few different types of organizers to avoid a web of cables.

I use velcro zip ties (like this: https://www.amazon.com/Pasow-Reusable-Fastening-Organizer-7-Inch/dp/B0154MS9Q0/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1503940004&sr=8-5&keywords=cable+organizer)

I also use these things: https://www.amazon.com/eBoot-Pieces-Adhesive-Management-Holder/dp/B01HR9VS4I/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1503940004&sr=8-10&keywords=cable+organizer

Leave a little space between your desk and the wall and either get a cable tray or check and see if your surge protector has slots on the bottom that you can use to hang it off screws.

Braided sleeving and velco strips will work wonders, or use a combination of the two depending on how much you have to deal with. It's on you to hide all of it behind your monitor stand for minimal appearance, but with a little work it'll look great!

I used a combination of adhesive cable clips and Velcro cable ties.

These clips:

And these ties:

Had about fixing the cable clutter. I highly recommend these https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0154MS9Q0/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1500860828&sr=8-6&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=velcro+cable+ties&dpPl=1&dpID=51lf5Z18ACL&ref=plSrch. You'll love them 2 ! Tidy up cowboy

Plus some other materials i probably missed but a quick amazon search of “Cable Management” on amazon can start to trigger some awesome ideas.

You really gotta sit there and stare at it and think how you can hide everything, neatly and routed in a way thats easy to clean. Having my monitors wall mounted allowed me to use the brackets to hide the long monitor power cords and hdmi cables i was also able to mount a power strip behind there so it was easier to power things while hiding wires.

these cable ties could be put to good use. You can use them to wrap the HDMI cords to the back of the poles that hold the monitors. As for the cords bellow the desk, you can wrap them all together with a tie or get something like this to run along the wall.

I use these and love them. Only $8 to keep all the cables in your house organized

Yeah the following items will help out a lot.

If you're averse to drilling into your desk like I was, here's what I used for my cable management with less room to work with than you, OP.

The Basic Stuff

2 x 40" Cable management sleeves- $14

30 x adhesive cable management clips- $7

50 x reusable velcro ties- $8

2 x Cable management bins- $23

The strongest double-sided 3M tape you can find- $10 at your local hardware store

Optional, but highly recommended

AmazonBasics Premium Dual Monitor Stand- $190

AmazonBasics 7 Port USB 3.0 Hub with 12V/3A Power Adapter- $27

AmazonBasics 4 Port USB 3.0 Hub with 5V/2.5A power adapter- $17

• The cable management sleeves should be pretty self-explanatory, but they have the added benefit of having holes cut out already for more efficient cable routing.
  
  
• The clips are useful if you have to route any cables under your desk or just need something to hold individually-wrapped cables in a convenient location under your desk.
  
  
• The velcro ties are useful for organizing your cables before routing them through the sleeves. I prefer to group mine by audio, video, and peripherals, but you may prefer otherwise.
  
  
• Use the cable management bins to hide your messy powerstrip and whatever else you may want to hide. They can also come in handy for routing cables in more complex A/V or music-production set-ups.
  
  
• Powered USB hubs can be really helpful for reducing the number of cables you have to routing from your desk to your PC or from your desk to an outlet. They're also really convenient when you have a phone that needs charged, a new wireless dongle to plug in, or just plugging in your basic peripherals vs. having to reach around the back of your PC to do it. I keep the 7-port Amazon hub on my desk for my mouse/keyboard BT dongles, charging my phone, and when I need to occasionally plug in my mouse/keyboard. Meanwhile, I keep the 4-port hub 3M-taped to the bottom of my desk for when I need to plug in external HD/USB drives.
  
  
• If you have the room in your budget and your monitors support VESA mounts, mounting your monitors would do wonders for your cable management and organization. I recommended Amazon's because I use their VESA mount for my 34" Viotek and it's sturdy as hell, so I imagine their double mount is just as good. That said, there's cheaper alternatives out there, but I just can't speak to their quality.

I recently organized all my cables, ordered some stuff off Amazon & I highly recommended this, this, & this!

All reusable -

That's easy to fix:
Anti-vibration kit,
fan gasket,
PSU gasket, acoustic padding, cable ties, etc.
