I am new to case modding. Please help me build the case of my dreams.
I'll post a picture of it here when I'm done.
((Question 1)) I plan to find an ATX case, rip the plastic sides off, and
build my custom case around the metal frame - is this a good plan?. I
have a vision for the way the case will look. It will be built entirely from
thick metal and look really mean. I have some metalworker friends who
can help.
My custom case will take much time and money to make. This is why it
needs to be as upgradeable as possible and I also want to make it right
the first time.
I have some of the details planed out but what I need to know now is this.
((2)) What is a good case to start with? I will be ripping the plastic "body"
off so it's not a concern. I'm looking for a good quality case without over-
paying.
((3)) Is MiniATX a good option since I will only need a few PCI and maybe
two exposed drive bays?
Any other tips on cases or building PCs would be well appreciated.
Thanks,
-Bukk
