My Experiments with Case Modding

A bunch of tools

Introduction

Case modification is all the rage these days. Until only a couple of years ago, only the truly hardcore would endeavor in case modification; if not for bragging rights, then for added overclocking functionality. Before then, those who wanted to modify their cases did it themselves, and very rarely would you find case modification parts in mainstream stores. Nowadays, drop by a CompUSA store and you will find an aisle dedicated to modified computer cases, lighted fans, and other case modification accessories. So what drove case modification into the mainstream? One possible reason could be the increased desire for one to personalize his own computer, to separate it from everyone else's. Another could be that people became tired of the plain old beige-colored box sitting on their desk and wanted something a bit more lively. These reasons, in addition to being able to look inside my computer, were my own reasons for experimenting with case modding.
