Hello there everyone, I'm new to case modding, I have done a few custom computers with transplants of boards but never touched modding the case. Is there any certain place to start, I always thought doing a clear side case was were ya started but i think i might be around about that now. An if I was to start there how would I go about doing it?! Sorry bout the spelling errors, an grammer errors.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
New to case modding.

Start with some external fan holes, a side window, then perhaps move onto painting. With these basic techniques, you can make just about any PC pretty damn nice.

Come on, there's nothing to be shy of, we all started somewhere. We have to know what we're dealing with.
my first mod was done with snips cutting the back grill for better airflow. was very sharp and dangerous... ;p then moved on to dremel cutting side fan holes in cheap cases for better CPU intake cooling. then moved to sidewindows with actual molding and fitting, none of that double sided cheap way out windows hack later i moved with dremel in hand for more modding and hacking and cutting
then onto video cards and cpu lapping and etc... never done painting dont have the room for it...
oh oh oh ! and cable sleeving and modding, and i forget what else
just post pics! we also have a ghetto mod section if you wanna put it there... i love ghetto mods
i'm waiting till i finish my degree so i can move to a beter payscale so i can get a house and room to mod, then i'll actually be building my own box from scratch with a dremel and pliers!!! lol
