==== Lighting mods ==== A lighting mod refers to lighting in or on the computer cases.<ref>{{cite web | publisher = MNPCTECH | title = Case Mod Supplies | url = http://www.mnpctech.com | access-date = 2009-05-07 }}</ref> This is usually achieved with [[cold cathode]] lights (CCLs), [[Light-emitting diode|LED]] [[case fan]]s,<ref>{{cite web | publisher = Xoxide | title = PC Case Fans and Cooling Fans | url = http://www.xoxide.com/casefans.html | access-date = 2009-05-07 }}</ref> or [[electroluminescent]] wire lights. The lights are sometimes paired with sound controllers that make the lights pulse in time to sound. CCLs come in long tubes and produce heat. LEDs come in many sizes and forms, most often seen in bars similar to CCLs or within fans. Electroluminescent wire, which takes the form of a small light rope, is sometimes embedded in cables such as [[Serial ATA|SATA]] cables. Lighting modifications are usually paired with window mods to help show off the components. As well, case fans, CPU heatsink fans, and power supplies themselves may feature lighting, thus enabling [[plug-and-play]].
