Default Ultimate Antec 300 Modding!
I finished my first Case mod, and I am utterly addicted, heres some pics.
What are some other cool case mods I could do to my Antec 300? Are there any kinds of case mods that help with cooling?
Thanks!

Very nice, i like the difference compared to the usual rectangle. You need to sort those wires out though, it spoils it

Nice. Does the acryllic push the side panel out so it isnt flush? It looks like it would since its so close to the the edge in the last pic.

To help with cooling you can remove the HDD bay and move HDD's up.

Other then that replacing the fans youve already got with better ones.

Flip your psu upside down so it intakes from underneath the case...

False floor to separate and hide the psu and accompanying wires

Sweet, very unique take on the side window mod. Like said above not like a normal rectangular mod. Kinda looks like a Silverstone Raven.

Clean work, good job. Other mods: paint the interior black and add some lights/cathodes as phillipjos suggested, and then turn the thing into a wind-tunnel with a handful of 38mm-thick high-RPM fans.
