Sorry if i have offended, but i prefer the sleeker, smoother more conservative computer cases. Life experience has taught me that bells and whistles are typically compensation for some form of penile lacking.

sorry again, please don't hate me fellas.
Why would you post that in our case mod section? If you don't like how our case mods look then why did you even look in here?

Re: lets see your rig

Well, i have seen really nice and classy custom computer cases. The word "mod" doesn't necessarily demand silly light shows. Clearly I've offended you, i wont post here again.

(it mostly a jesting post by the way, try to be less sensitive)

Re: lets see your rig

just because someones taste in cases,and lighting differs from yours.there is no need to be out right rude with your lack of ahem comment.that was just down right rude,and uncalled for.in my life experience those who talk about other's lack of manhood normally are the ones lacking.

Re: lets see your rig

I like the Blue LED lights / fans in my case as it helps brighten my cupboard up. Although it is annoying when watching movies etc.

Re: lets see your rig

It's all astetics. Fancy fans, heatpipes, CCFLs, 20kg computer cases aren't needed to keep a computer running properly. But it makes it look nice. And it impresses your friends.
