Part 1: 20 Crazy And Unique Case Mods

[surda]

that microwave would of been nice if it had 2 fermi sli, doing that will allow you to use the microwave as a desktop computer and as a microwave to heat up your food

This needs to feature at least one Neil Stephenson wood case mod.

I really wish my mom didnt throw out castle graveskull

The Red mod is the most sleek and elegant of all IMO. All they have to do to make that microwave usable again is to cram a Fermi in there and load up furmark.

All were really creative, honestly.

What about the case mod that was built to resemble the temple of Nod?

I always thought that one was awesome

Simply blown away by the damnation one though.... Just wow.....

Of all the case mods that you put up there by DarthBeavis you pick that one? This guy has done so many mods that are way cooler than that one. Not to say it's not, just that he's got better ones. And you can't say you picked that one becuase it was recent. Some of the mods in this article are 5+ years old.

I love the coverage of this community, because they deserve it, but it's a shame that this was limited to 20. There are some other top modders out there that were not showcased here. Also, it would be great to see an article that isn't just photos but actually goes deeper into what modding is all about, why people do it, etc, etc.

Credit where credit is due Kevin, we actually reviewed case number 11:

anyone else notice that the t-shirt on the leela one is actually a t-shirt... meaning the guy probably has her topless most of the time

Killzone 2 is for the PS3, not PS2

 

[sargentchimera]

But can they run Cry...Oh....... it...

 

[B-Kills]

some very nice mod cases, very interesting and inspiring , would like to build my own someday!

 

[randomkid]

I wonder whether they can keep them as cool as normal PC cases... While some looks like they do, there are some which I think will not run for long time like the Leela one.

 

[randomkid]

That's really cool... genius! I wonder what's the real temp.

 

[B-Kills]

Yup that's a good question, I don't think the Leela one will be kept cool. but an interesting design anyways.

 

[bCubed]

The red/white/black one was very awesome I would definitely put it in my living room, as a BSG fan, I thought that that mod was just pure win.

Yeh, so buy one! It's a Lian-Li Luxor Pyramid case. It looks like the guy disabled one of its major features however, the light at the top!

 

[shrapnel_indie]

There's been many an impressive mod over the years. Some work, some die fast. As it is, I'm glad when I have the budget to build high-end... most of these mods would leave me with not even the budget to finish them.

 

[soulgraph]

Indeed.

[scooter69]

Now that's kinda cool, and creepy at the same time!

 

[scooter69]

Now that's cool, why can't i come up with something like that? That's right, I'd get pissed trying to make it all work and through it across the room. Better stick to a pre-built case.

 

[downix]

My, that microwave mod looks familiar... oh yeah, I was working that booth. That was a joke on the Video Toaster, the Video Microwave, a Pegasos running MorphOS inside of a Microwave. A bit of a callback to the old Amiga the was a clone of.

they forgot this one Team Fortress 2 case mod to scare the crap out of any one at a LAN
