The Mods of Paris Games Week 2017

Paris Games Week wasn't all just about the LDLC competition of course, it was filled to the brim with stands from the major game developers, hardware manufacturers, technology retailers, and of course pop culture stores.  Although primarily focusing on gaming and the booming esports scene, PGW had a host of mods on show too, and you can check these out in the video and pictures below.

Adjacent to the LDLC booth was Thermaltake, rocking a plethora of LCS systems as well as a cabinet containing Mike's impressive Tower 101 mod. This mod was on prime display at Computex earlier in the year and like then certainly pulled in passers by for a closer look.

Across from the LDLC stand were Infomax and Corsair, rocking suites of demo PCs and live gaming feeds.

Further down the hall is where you would find the Materiel booth and its Silicon Throne, along with a very interesting piece on display: the Calyos NSG S0, successfully launched on Kickstarter earlier this year. The NSG S0 is a fully passive chassis design, built in collaboration with Watermod's (and bit-tech members) Mathieu 'Sassanou' Heredia and Laurent 'Seinron' Petipas. Also on show were some of their small production run systems, similarly spruced up with some Watermod treatment.

The last main hardware presence was over at the Asus RoG stand, where it had a number of gaming laptops, high-end hardware components, and mods on display. Mathias Axiom's Assassin's Creed build was stood firmly in the centre, flanked by mods from Gregory Rousseau and Ghislain Boullay.
