Default Ultimate War PC Case !Need Help!

Hello!

I am new to community. My name is Jake and I am 14 years old. I am the extreme gamer. My dad is a IT Manager at a hospital. I grew up around computers and I have loved them since I saw one. I need help designing the ultimate case. I'm looking for a case I can use to make it with. For the controls I'm thinking having those jet fighters toggle switches to turn the computer on and all the led lights. If anyone has any idea's or knows were I can get a case please post here I need all the help I can get. I have been learning about computers for about 6 years now. I run a online business with some gaming friends its a little lead prorgam and were pulling in about 500-1000$ a day. Dont even ask how my friend is a advertising freak.

Why Not just find a cheap Full Tower and mod the hell outa it. Generally Find a theme you want to run with and go with it.

Welcome aboard - you extreme gamer you

As far as designing the ultimate case goes:

What's your budget?
What does your case need to have in/on it (drives, type of cooling, handles etc)
Are you planning on properly modding it, or just buying a stock case and adding in a few 5.25" bay devices, panels etc?


Oh yeah... Just so you know - don't think about pimping your "online business" here without Glitterkill's express permission

Nice life story so you want a case that looks like war? i'd go with the fighter switch idea and maybe put a green base coat of paint down on everything and then do some black streaks in it to look like camo and then that netting stuff that they use if you know what i'm talking about. if not just tell me i'll find you a pic. maybe put some gauges for temp and what not in the drive bays with the same paint scheme. anyways i'm chalk full of ideas. welcome to PcApex by the way.

Welcome. We don't care how much money you make, because cash doesn't necessarily correlate with a quality case mod. What you're suggesting: a war-themed case with fighter jet toggles, LEDs, other suggestions for camo paint, etc...it's all been done (many times) before. Items like the toggles are now mass-produced by modding e-tailers, so finding examples of people who used them in their mods is as easy as searching the gallery. Here are some war or camo-themed case mods:

The only thing we know he's going for is jet fighter toggle switches and "all the red lights". And it has to be ultimate, too. And it seems he has a sizable amount of disposable cash. That about covers it, from what we know as fact.
