The UK’s first ever Mod-Fest

[Steve]

Nobody likes beige any more, and PC World are celebrating this with a modding competition.

PC World will be hosting the UK’s first ever ‘Mod-Fest’ – a showcase event for the weird and wonderful world of PC modding this Saturday 10th July at their Croydon superstore.

PC modding is a new and growing trend among PC users who want to express their creativity and personalise the look of their PC, be it a shrine to Barbie or a miniature disco extravanganza. With all the components now readily available, the only limit is your imagination.

Highlights of the event are:

- Competition for the UK PC Modding Championship crown
- On show - extreme PC modding, PC overclocking and gaming
- Technology and Games Preview Showcase from industry leaders come and meet Intel, AMD, NVidia, Ubisoft and others
- Modding clinic – providing technical advice and help in association with Custom PC magazine

When – Saturday 10th July 2004, 9.00am to 6.00pm

Where – PC World superstore, Purley Way, Croydon

Sounds like it's well worth a look if you're into modding or want some inspiration for your next mod.

So guys, is anybody planning on going down to take some pictures? I would if it wasn't so far away from me.

The Custom PC's ... PCs are slower than mine they had a X800 Pro and X800 XT neither as fast as my 600mhz core. The nVidia 6800U PCI-E was impressive in farcry very snappy. Fit nVidia bird!

Sorry but thats my Girlfriends godmothers husbands case and it is fantastically done.

If you think you can do better go ahead and be my guest! Don't slag other peoples stuff becuase it may not be to your style. Did you know if you press the barbie hand the CD tray opens? Like to see you rig it up.

Why can't people just be nice
