Mod of the Month July 2013

Mod of the Month July 2013

It's that time again as we take a look at some of the best new builds, fresh from our busy modding forums. We've selected six of the most promising up and coming projects for you to feast your eyes on and, as usual, you can vote for your favourite projects using the poll in the forum. If you want to get your vote in early, use the links at the end of each page to zip straight to the forum thread.

We've got something for everyone again this month (yeah, sorry, a bit late with this one but we'll be back on track later this month), from old radio conversions, mini-ITX scrathbuilds, water-cooling behemoths and even a scale tank. Before we get to this month's projects, don't forget bit-tech's Case Mod Index and Scratch Build Index. They're fantastic tools that can be helpful if you need some inspiration or want to see what other people have done with their cases.

We're proud to have Mnpctech sponsoring Mod of the Month. The Mnpctech guys are regulars on our forums and, in addition to being avid modders themselves with some awesome projects to their names, the Mnpctech online store is also well worth a visit from every modder.

The winner of Mod of the Month will get one of these awesome prizes from the Mnpctech store itself. There will be some new and exciting products from Mnpctech on the horizon too, but for now feast your eyes on these pieces of true PC bling.
