Coolest Case Mods of Computex 2023: Alien Facehuggers, Motorcycles and More
The Computex 2023 show floor is more than just a place for PC hardware companies to showcase new technology. It showcases a number of highly creative case mods made by independent artists from around the world. We didn’t have as much time as usual to roam the exhibit halls looking for mods, but editor-in-chief Matt Safford was able to snap some pretty cool shots while he was rushing between meetings. .
cyberpunk bike case
We spotted a 3D printed cyberpunk bike inspired case mod by LINModified at Enermax’s booth showcasing Enermax’s Aquafusion ADV AiO cooler. It’s called the “future on wheels,” but it just so happens to have no wheels. Perhaps the Enermax MarbleBron RGB 850W PSU is supposed to be on wheels? (Or maybe the future doesn’t have wheels. I don’t know.)
alien facehugger incident
This alien facehugger case at the G.Skill booth features 32 GB of G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6000 RAM, an Intel Core i7-13700K processor, an Asus TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3070 GPU, and a 500 GB Samsung 870 EVO SSD. I have it.
In all fairness, if this case were accidentally attached to your face, you’d at least get a massive RGB light show and the ability to play most games at 1080p. Perhaps a tiny baby mobile processor may finally pop out of your belly.
cyber tower incident
We loved this multi-tiered futuristic cyber tower by Samuel Caranta. Samuka Studio. This incredibly detailed case mod uses Thermaltake’s Tower 500 as a base, and he took 2nd place (runner-up) at Thermaltake’s 2022 CaseMOD Invitational Season 1.
The module features an ASRock Z690 Steel Legend WiFi 6E motherboard with Intel Core i9-12900K, 32GB DDR4-3600 RAM, and an Asus ROG STRix Radeon RX 6750 XT OC Edition GPU.
Incident of the month
Entitled ‘The Moon’, this ‘airspace center’ tower by Krittanon Kidprasert won first place in Thermaltake’s 2022 CaseMOD Invitational Season 1. Also based on Thermaltake’s Tower 500 case, this mod rotates to showcase different components. (Kidprasert also made his Cooler Master Shark X mod which we saw at CES 2023 and which I liked.)
Medieval Church Affair
Aptly titled “Quiet Please”, this case mod by CUGMAG is based on the Pure Base 500 FX case from be Quiet!, modified to look like a medieval church complete with stained glass and catacombs . This build includes an Intel i9-10900KF processor, an MSI MEG Z490 Unify motherboard, and a Zotac RTX 3060Ti Twin Edge OC GPU.
light tower case
While it may not be as practical, this black and gold tower of light is certainly captivating in acrylic with etched diamond-shaped tiles. This mod was created by Mike Petereyns. MPCustomization, was also on display at G.Skill’s booth, displaying a G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6000 RAM with 64 GB, an AMD Ryzen 9 7900X processor, a ProArt X670E-CREATOR WiFi motherboard, and an Asus Radeon RX 7900 XT. rice field. GPUs.
cybernetic cylinder
This cracked cybernetic cylinder is designed to showcase the GPU inside. By the way, this is his new Geforce RTX 4070 Amp Airo Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse card from Zotac. This impressive custom-built case mod was created by fake mark.
Pyramid Case with Liquid Nitrogen Overclocking
Rather than this colorful foggy pyramid being a way to keep a steady stream of liquid nitrogen pumped to cool G.Skill’s latest Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-8000 memory module, it’s really a case mod. I don’t know if there are. Achieved a record-breaking 10,000MT/s.
This “mod” is Elmore Lab It also has an Intel Core i9-13900K processor, an Asus ROG Maximus Z790 Apex motherboard and a PowerColor Hellhound AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX GPU.
Other Thermaltake Mods
These may not look as wild as a custom built case, but I appreciate these super clean builds on display at Thermaltake’s booth. The first is by Mhike Samsin. TantricmodZ PC Case Modsuses Thermaltake’s Ceres 500 Snow as a base and features a custom water cooling setup with rigid black acrylic tubing and a temperature monitoring screen.
The second is by Michael John Larsana. MadMods PC Mods, using Thermaltake’s Core P6 TG Racing Green as a base. And the third is by Jesse Palacio. JPfixed It uses Thermaltake’s Tower 500 as a base.
