My only issue with a fire engine red case is what fan color do you choose? Really the only thing that comes to mind is green or white fans and that's an odd color combo. Black or White are typically the best colors because then the base color not only offsets your hardware, but you can choose a fan color that accents everything to your liking.


Regarding the windowed door, I get why folks like them. I was more pleased that you can now use both door fan mounts to cool multi gpu arrays. My opinion on a windowed door is that it looks cool and you gaze at it lovingly a few times. Then the case goes under your desk and it no longer matters smile.gif I'd rather take the extra airflow.

One thing I don't like to turn the Scout 2 into is making it look too fancy when it's already fancy looking. I'm in my 40's & seeing all red is becoming too much for me. Maybe good for my kids but not for me. Maybe white is OK. But please guys, not red.

Red is the fiery red color of a sports car that is gleaming in the sunshine as you drive down the mid-life crisis highway. So, you know, it does have a purpose. biggrin.gif

Red or white, or even non led fans.

I have my case sitting next to me on my desk, so I see in the window all the time.

Different colors is a cheap way to get more people to buy the same case, you like a case that isn't in your face, some like them to yell look at me. I know a lot of girls like red, pink, and purple cases but mainly red for some odd reason headscratch.gif

I would love to see a digi-camo ones, your standard digi-camo plus a arctic one and a red/black something like this.

In a slightly lighter shade and a matte finish you basically have OD Green.... doesnt get much more military than that.

Hello All,

Fairly new member here (to Overclock.net), and fairly new to case mods as well. I had decided to have a little fun with customization with my latest computer build, and having settled on a Storm Scout case (for the red and black theme) I stumbled upon this awesome thread (resource) and gained a good bit of knowledge and inspiration. So I figured I would share my simple attempts at some case modifications. My plan is to eventually get a proper fasle HD door, and PSU cover.

Overall this was a fun build and my only regret right now was waiting a few days for the Scout 2...but, I feel I got a steal as my scout only set me back 40 bucks biggrin.gif Let me know what you think, or what I might do to make things a little better.
