Hey, I like building my own gear, I'm an old time geek after all.
The case modding culture is a bit baffling to an old guy like me, though. I could handle the modders, trying to tweak their machines to maximum performance. Heck, we did that back in the old Z80 days. I must have done a couple of dozen lower-case mods for the TRS-80 Model 1.
But with the multiplayer first person shooter games came LAN parties, where a whole pack of geeks would get together somewhere and blow the heck out of each other. And that naturally leads to wanting to show off your machine... hence case modding.
There are case mods and there are case mods. However, this guy... this guy is in a league by himself. This is most beautiful PC you ever will see.
