Timmeh writes "bit-tech.net has the worklog from a Half-Life 2 inspired case mod, as comissioned by Gabe Newell. The PC mod was done by the same guy that did the original Blackmesa case mod."

Case mods

[tod_miller]

Are cool, I can imagine 'need for case mods: underground' where you unlock case fans, different colour light strips, catching colour drive bay doors and blanks.

You start at the beginning and pick a pink iMac and the commentator say 'oh, weak dude!'

I think EA have plans to release this next summer.

You can upgrade to over clock, bigger CPU and case fans, different colling compounds and liquid cooling systems (no2 baby!)

You then drag you cases out into the desert and then try and cool them as fast as possible. 0 to -60 in x seconds.

Then you use your l33t case modding skills to hijack trucks carrying tvs and dvds and sell them, and then have to go pink slips for a car that can load windows XP in 10 seconds, a fabled car called a 10 second car... it usually fires case screws out the back when you push it too hard...

Any other correlations between the geeky art of case modding and the chick laden sport of illegal street racing?
