Something that I have seen many times when someone shares a cool custom project on social media or a build log in a forum, is that a lot of people gets a bit intimidated by the whole modding-part. “I wish I could do the same”, “How did you do that? It looks so difficult!”

However, it does not have to be that difficult. The professional modders started somewhere as well, everyone was a beginner sometime. But where do you start if you want to get into modding?

In this guide I will go through how with a few very simple steps you could make your PC look better as well as my thoughts on how to start doing modding.

First of all, we need something to start working on, for this guide I chose a Air 240 from Corsair. It has a lot of potential for modding as it can be turned upside down as well as on the side without having to do any big modding to it.

Next thing I tend to do is to decide on a theme of the build, some people likes to do a build based on a movie or game while others just go for a color-theme. For this guide I will go for a black/silver/grey theme. The good thing about deciding on a theme is that then you can look for hardware that specific fit that theme.

So what are we going to do with this little project?
