Few days ago I stumbled across Perfromance PC's website in my search for cases. I like their range of selection and some of the modding extras they do. I checked ResellerRatings.com and found out they have a very high rating in customer staisfaction. So now I'm wondering if anyone has knowledge of other online sites like performance PCs that I can go and check out? I been searching the net and its slow going so figured I'd ask the folks here. Hoping to speed up my search.

These guys do some pretty nice work, but they are mostly a distributer of case modding parts... though they do i think 3 or 4 cases themselves. Check it out.

There is another company that does phenomenal work.
There name escapes me, but I believe it has something to do with pork rinds or pig something. I'll look it up.

Thanks for the info, guys. Yeah, I got my eye on two cases Performance PCs will mod. Still looking about. I'm sure glad there are palces that'll do small modding like instead of a 80mm or 90mm blow hole they'll make it 120mm. I wish more companies did this.

Would it be a pain in the arse to cut out a window yourself? I am trying to figure out exactly how I could do this, but just don't know what would be the best way to attach the glass.

If you have the tools and know how its not that bad but if you dont (and most of us dont) then someone like Performance-PC can do a better job. From what I understand the best way is to laser cut the glass. This requires specialized tools and quite a bit of know how. You could cut some plexi-glass yourself I suppose and bolt it on but that in itself takes some know how as well. It could look tacky if not done right.

Levell0rd, (PPC.com employee) posts over on HardForum and he could probably give you some pointers how to do it. He's posted alot of pics of his work he has done to give you an idea how it looks.
