all the wires below my computer are messy and bended. does this bending matter in quality of broadband performance over my computer? or does it need to be straight?

Yes..
Cables should be short and straight to be fast and good

bent cables are normally ok. If you see any kinds of breaks in the cables, then there is a problem.
Are you having a problem with transfer speeds? (uploading/downloading/web page retrievial) If so, how long is the cord in total? The longer the cable (over 50 feet) the more singal degradation you will have. Use short pre-made cable whenever possible.
Cat 6 is the best cable sold now, followed by Cat 5E.

Bent cables are not like a water hose - if you bend it, it doesn't squeeze off the flow of data. High electrical interference can have an effect, but having cables wrapped around things on your desk should not produce any noticeable difference in performance.

It should be fine, just make sure that the ethernet cables you are using are at least Cat5 rated.

i think it's not. because mine is bended to. but it's okay..unless it's extremely bended.meanwhile, weather determines the connection quality.

first of all it's bent cables, and no it shouldn't affect your connection, and if it does the amount affected is negligible.
