Yay look at my modded case - that I didn't mod myself, and yeah ok it kinda looks like all those other modded cases, so it's not really very unique is it...
Sorry Series no offense meant to you in particular, I just find the modding craze kind of lame. And even moreso when people are doing shop bought mods. Modding in my opinion should be about improving performance (eg: better cooling). And if you're gonna mod for looks then you should try for a unique look - ie: come up with an idea and mod it yourself. Don't just buy a standard "Yeah we cut a hole in it and whacked in a window and a neon." mod. |

Running cool not looking cool is a noble goal :)
And I'll second what Power said. CoolPC sell some good stuff and they've always been great when I've dealt with them. In order to get a cool case you don't really need to mod anyway - just put a case fan in the front sucking air in and one at the back sucking air out and get a decent CPU cooler. There's no real modding required. Most reasonable quality cases have the mounting points there ready to go. If you want to buy a case that is great to work on then get one of these. People will flame you for being one of the herd - but they are a superb case. Great build quality, heaps of room and expandability and very modular - you can clip things in and out without needing a screwdriver. If you want something similar with a little more cooling potential this one here has an extra hole cut in the side panel with a cooler already mounted over where the CPU sits. Full range of cases. And like I said - no offense. It's just modding is starting to become very riceboy-ish you know :( |

Speaking of gay, I'm fitting a 200mm AC fan to the side of my case, which is unoverclocked! |

why not spend the money on a faster cpu so you dont need to overclock (which is the reason most people need a cooler case)
