Modifying your computer's case by removing the bland beige paint and painting it black with flames (or whatever you want!) adding extra fans and windows, cleaning up your inside wiring with plastic tubing, and then watercooling your CPU or videocard. Started out with Lan gaming fans who wanting to trick out thier rigs but its now spreading to the mainstream.

Just as hot-rodders create custom cars, PC modders modify their PCs into functional works of art. PC Modding can be aesthetic modifications like adding perspex windows, lights, ultraviolet cables, decals and other modifications.

Modifying a computer to make it look cool. Generally followed by the realization that computers don't make you cool. Plastic windows so you can see your electronics, neon lights, and loud fans.

A popular mod among Creative Zen Micro owners that involves using the rectangular Altoids case to store the mp3 player. Without any modifications a Micro nearly sits perfectly inside a case. Padding the inner-walls not only makes for a perfect fit, it also gives a bit of drop protection. A hole is cut away at the top to allow access to the power/lock button, headphone jack, microphone, and USB input.
The case can be painted and decorated to the owner's preference.

There were over 50 overpriced cases for the iPod and not a single one for my Micro, so I spent 75 cents on some Altoids and did an Altoids case mod at home.
