You could paint it black or paint the inside uv reactive <insert color here> and the outside black that would pretty cool.

I think a 120 fan on the front with some aluminum mesh to cover it would definitely help air flow and could look nice and clean too. I like the practical mods over the just eye candy ones.Just my 2 cents.

Get a nice Zalman cooler for your 7800gtx

Paint the inside of the case Black or something

Mod a case door


You see where the intake is on the front of the case those little vents. Put a Green Cathode there or somethign so it will have like an alien or something effect coming out of the vents. That would be sweet

Definitely take a dremel to the front of your case to add some intake fan action ...

All that unexploited space is getting me hot for some 120mm fan action ...

slade your at it again just a month ago you said you owned your final PC then you started selling it off and now your modding out your case... yeah definantly some fan action but if you go for the covered LED fan don't use an 80mm in a 120 cover... waste of intake... Turbines look nice but leave alot to be deired... most people leave them uncovered so dust can become an issue, but my suggestion to YOUR case is a window in the side panel, Your famous for your wire managment and I truly beleive that a windowed side panel will help flaunt your laborious hiding of every wire... but thats just my suggestion...

Yeah but i have a solution for that. Put a dust filter on the computer side of the fan not so it shows.
