What Made You Start Modding? screambitch Sep 18th, 06, 03:49 PM #1 (permalink)
hey guys, lets all share how we got the passion for making our rigs chio as hell...

i'll start first... one fine day, out of sheer boredom.. i chanced upon a webbie... www.casemodgod.com.. some of u may know this site... i fell in love with what i saw in there and told myself that i've got to make my rig look like the ones i saw in there...

so out i went shopping with my dad of course.. lol.. picked up some new hardware...

Mobo: GA-8IG1000MK (Gigabyte) Bad Choice, I was a noob then.
Gfx: Sapphire X800PRO (Best card on the market at the time)
Rams: KVRDDR400 512MB
Psu: HEC TruPower 350W

So i built the rig and.. modded my old compaq case with a sidepanel... i also cut my hand pretty badly thanks to the aluminium sheet that was being cut...
ever since then... i have had a love for building chio rigs...

MacBook (2.4Ghz, 4GB DDR3, 250GB & 9400M)

Started back when I was in another forum, main;y because I got "poisoned" by other modder's designs. Got influenced by the Centurion 5 gang in vr-forums so I decided to buy one too

At first I wanted to sell my Praetorian away, but could not find a casing that I like to replace it, then came the idea why not renew the casing and make it into something special.
