{{Short description|Modifications to a computer to add or remove extra hardware}} {{multiple issues| {{unreliable sources|date=May 2014}} {{More citations needed|date=October 2022}} }} [[Image:AzTtec, a computer case modification "mod".jpg|thumb|220px|right|AzTtec, winner of the CPU magazine "Mad Reader Mod" contest, the Custom PC Magazine "Mod of the Month" contest, and a [[Thermaltake]]/Modder's-Inc contest in 2011 ]] '''Case modification''', commonly referred to as '''case modding''', is the modification of a [[computer case]] or a [[video game console]] chassis. Modifying a computer case in any non-standard way is considered a case mod. Modding is done, particularly by [[Computer hardware|hardware]] enthusiasts, to show off a computer's apparent power by showing off the internal hardware, and also to make it look aesthetically pleasing to the owner. Cases may also be modified to improve a computer's performance; this is usually associated with cooling and involves changes to components as well as the case.
