    Plans for my mod

    I don't have all the materials yet, but here are some looks at what I am going to do.

    The case is going to be modded and is a Gigabyte Aurora 570.




    I think that this would look good, with no color on the fans, and a red cathode.
    I think the black interior would be nice as it would hid the psu cables better when they come out from behind the case.
    Then again, the red shows off the parts better. What do you all think?

    If there are any ideas about windows, colors, fan placement, etc. please let me know. This will be my first mod, so please make comments on anything.

    I will need help on changing leds so that the original blue front leds are red.

    To sum it all up, I will be painting the case, cutting the motherboard tray for wire management, making a window to see the psu (not sure, but it is a possibility), adding lighting, and possible more fans. The existing fan holes will be cut out for better air flow. Finally, the front panel has blue leds, which will be replaced with red.

    Black inside and out will be most easy on an all black case and being a bit of a sucker for black and red cases then some nice red lighting and led's ?

    Black everything.

    (just spray it in and out with non-conductive black paint - no need to even dismantle it, ha ha)

    ........and some very subtle lighting as mentioned by colossous
