I think i would be a nice idea to have a mod section but i would want strict rules about what can be posted. I get so tired of people who post a pic of there premod case with a CCFL and some LED fans and call it a mod.
You just quoted me right there :) I don't call myself a modder though haha

Premods are a joke for people with money and they are aftraid of powertools.
Or they have no creativity. (Sorry to offend anyone)

Its simply better getting props for something you did.

I have an army of powertools in my garage. I'm just afraid of ******* up a system that looks fine to me already. I really cant think of any other mod to do to my system that would improve it any. Gimme some ideas!

That's the thing about modding, you mod your case to where you like it, not to impress anyone else. If you're happy with your system the way it is now, then leave well enough alone................. 8)

LOL, c'mon man! I think I've established that I am contributing to the LR forum community and I greatly appreciate winning a free motherboard! Looks like you have managed to snag a pretty sweet video card and case so I wouldn't be so bitter... 8)

The case I built. And on the RMA form they say they can replace your product wit the same model or better. I just did everything they asked and got a better one. :)

Yeah thats definitely a nice system. I'm thinking about going with some UV stuff here in the near future. I'll have to replace my regular blue CC's with Blue UV one's though :(

UV is definately the way to go. I think it looks very cool. It is bright enough to stand out and look great but it's not the super brightness of blinding light like what is what ends up happening with regular colored CCFL's and fans. UV takes a little more work because you prettymuch have to sleave your wires to get a good effect, but it is totally worth it!!!

Yeah that would be the problem. My wires are already sleeved. They came that way with the PSU :)

Yeah thats true. Wouldnt that technically make it even easier to sleeve the wires? UV green or red maybe? What would go good with blue?
