I doubt your could get the case and modding for that much. A case alone runs about that much. Professionally modded cases online go for around $200...

That's because we respect the art and are willing to do something for a fellow modder, regardless...

That's the difference between you and I Spectrum...A guy comes straight up and says what he needs and is capable of doing and what he is thinking in the way of price...I don't see why it has to be about the money...Just for the satisfaction of helping out a member that has computers and modding on his mind, hell I love doing stuff like this.
That's how ya build a good reputation...Cool huh?

Why don't you just stoop down and buy a pre-mod off of E-bay? There are alot of nice pre-modded cases on E-bay and newegg.com. I wouldn't stoop to that level but HEY you said that you didn't want to do it yourself so thats what I would do. Plus they are all 30-50 bucks!! Unless you want a really nice one...then around 60-90...... Good luck in what ever you do...there are alot of good modding people in here!! "You much choose....but choose wisely...."

Does anyone know how much it cost to ship a mid-size case (lanboy, chieftec, etc...) without a power supply? If no one else wants to mod it I'm up for it too.

I feel the same way Zenn, I do it for free for my friends, just because I enjoy modding and helping people. Its gotten hard with my occupation though. I love building hot rods and custom cars but when you do it all day and the young hot rodders come to my house to play and use my knowledge and tools, it gets tireing. I've learned something since I've been out of the army, never take your hobby you love and do it for work 12 hours a day.

Case in point... when I switched to running PimpRig full-time it was awesome and still is. Being your own boss is a truly rewarding experience but MAN IS IT STRESSFUL! I used to design websites/graphics and tinker with my PC toys as a hobby. Now that I do it as a job it no longer is a relaxing activity. Now there are deadlines, expectations, commitments, rules... etc. Adding those things will take some of the fun out of your former hobby.

It's always a big decision to persue your hobby, the things that make you happy, as a job... once you attain it you have essentially lost a big part of what you used to do as fun. I still will design stuff and tinker with my PC toys on non-work related endeavors but it is still different. I still LOVE what I do... it's just not the same as before.

Be ready to pick up a new hobby if you ever find yourself in that position... I was begining to lose steam a couple months ago (since I work pretty much 7 days a week and 12 hours a day off and on now) so I picked up a couple old hobbies of mine... collecting some comics and playing Magic (MtG).

HAHAH Dream on... I got three decks that would make you want to quit playing... Sunburst deck, LD/Tooth and Nail deck, and a green/blue control decK I call Eternal Control. All of them type II. I used to play in sanctioned type II tournaments a number of years ago. I quit playing right when the Mirage expansion came out and recently started again right before Firth Dawn came out.

I retract my statement then. I'm still a n00b at MtG compared to you then. I have a kick ass black deck I call "Quick Kill". Just in case though, I got some Avatar of Woe's and Royal Assassin's in it.
