Ok here'z the deal >>>BRACE YOURSELF<<<

I'm currently in the "planning stage" of modding my old'ish but very reliable pc.

The main reason for me modding my PC is coz it generates way too much heat & it is seriously lacking in style & i'm sure it will look 100% better than it currently is.

It is very plain, dirty & boring looking!
...At the moment anyway... ...Until i have my WiCkEd~WaY with it...

My colour theme is going to be Red & Black
Lightz: 1X 12" Dual CCFLs', 3X 80mm LED fans & 1X 120mm fan (All RED)
Paint: Black gloss spray paint (Possibly Red aswell for detail type stuff)

Just for the record & so that there is no confusion i am putting:

1X 80mm fan in the front of my pc about 2" up from the base

1X 80mm fan on the left side window panel (Opposite graphics card)

1X 120mm fan about an inch or two away from my PSU (Top blowhole)

Possibly 1X 80 mm fan at the back of my pc (Still undecided!)

& my dual CCFLs' are going to be put in an "L" shape near the left side.

OK here'z where you guyz come in...
I have my ideaz down for most of my pc except for the right side next to the motherboard & at the moment it is just going to be a black gloss side panel!

I can't have that... i need some inspiration & STR8 up "PHAT" ideaz to make that side of my case as good as the other will be :D

Pics below show the side i'm talking about & the old style casing taken off.
Any Ideaz, suggestions welcome...
I am a "nOOb" modder but if i'm gona do sumthin' i'm gona do it right & accurate :cool:

(Also i am thinkin' about mounting my MotherBoard to some plexi & getting rid of the current metal panel that it is currently attached to)

Right side of case that i would like ideas on:

Case taken off of the right side:

Right side of the case without the case on:
 
LOL :rolleyes: Totally won't attempt that (The woman suggestion)

I don't need suggestionz for the front, especially err... lame ones (No offense)

Nice before & after pix pegasus!
Im having a 120mm blowhole on top which'll cook up a bit of a challenge to do coz the top of my pc case is slightly round!
It will be easy to do i'm sure once i've got down solid plans

Im doing this coz i can, & wow my pc looks more lame & lamer as i gather more ideas & Bitz 2 mod it...lol

That isn't a bad idea but i'm slightly worried about all the power that i will have distributed around my pc & watt-not (Punn!...Doh!) after i'm done adding the Nu-Fans & stuff

So far i am definately putting in 2X 80mm fans, 1X 120mm fan & a dual sound controlled CCFL with inverter...
Im not sure if putting a CCFL on the right side aswell would be a good idea or not? I don't wanna over do it (Power-Wise) but i am leaning very much towards the window idea for the right side with a logo|That is a sweet idea with a complimentary logo on the Nu-MOBO tray.

(Although I do have a spare set of CCFL's coz there was a sale on them & i already had the one's i wanted but i spotted coolermaster one's & so i bought them for less than a £5 ||couldn't help myself||)

(I think my PSU is 240 watts & i'm not really looking to buy another 1 unless i can get a cheap 1..."HeHeHE")
