Picture 1 of 20

 
The Oil Computer

Oil computer? Why does that seem so familiar? By the way, the sign says: "And the fish do not mind."

This is the second part of this article. We recommend that you check out Part 1 if you like crazy case mods!

18 and 19 were both amazing!
I'd love to have that V8 revving up for me.

And for 19, wow. Just wow. Is that the pinnacle of water cooling right there?

#19 is Heavy duty. Looks much more hardware than that Coolmaster HAF. Looks like a stealth bomber.

Really weird but very nice to see.

8 is the nicest imo. I'd rather have straight lines though and no SLI logo though but still very nice.

These Ruskies are good.

That wall coming down was just the best thing.

If Phazotron - NIIR were to get into CPU cooling in the same way they competed with us years ago in terms of military radar tech ...

Pity their fabs are not competitive ... but in terms of instrumentation / cooling / power engineering, they are right up there.

Sorry for the shameless plug ...

I bet the computer cases cost more than the hardware inside

The first person shooter one was pretty cool, but these ones really weren't that impressive to me I guess...

no disrespect to the site (because it rocks), but tom's hardware has the worst image gallery i have ever seen. come on guys, it's 2010. you can come up with better user interaction design than this.

I swear, these two articles have made me want to go paint ATI CrossFire on the side of my case in big red letters...

There are some nice mods here but the mini bike is best I have seen. I like the soccer ball the best from these mods.

ask me number 10 is the best , sure it's not the fanciest , or wildiest. but i hoenstly think that is waht makes it teh best , it's still practical for using in a home even an avaerage users home, yet it's got a clear theme that many gamers could love. i'm surprised some boutique builder hasn't already done cases just like it. i just can't picture many many other designs going over well with the majority of people (as far as actually sitting in thier home) the desogns are jsut too wild generally but number 10 is just awsome yet still practical in function.

Number 18 (the small block engine) is cool, but check out that microscopic monitor he's using. There's more bezel than screen!
