Hello guys, sorry this isn't a post about some nice rig but I just have a quick question and hopefully this is the right place. I was wondering if there was anybody here that can make me a custom PC case or knows where I can go about doing so, thanks!

    Depends on what you are looking for. I highly recommend Kirk from Lazerwerxs. He's a forum member here by the name of Gone Cruising. He custom makes Acrylic cases and does a fantastic job. Here is his website, http://www.lazerwerx.com/. And the cases listed on that site aren't even all the projects he's done. Search his name here on the forums and look in the mods rigs section and you can see some of his other stuff. He will work with you and get what you want.

    Wow, thanks for replying. Didn't think anybody was going to reply. I remember some of Gone Cruising's build when I was more active on this forum before but didn't know he made custom cases for people so I'll definitely contact him. Not sure what I exactly want yet so I'll try to get some ideas from his site. Thanks again.

    I forgot about him having some stuff over at frozenq. Thanks for posting that NFM. And I actually have one of his cases that he built for himself. I will say it is very nice, and well though out. Actually I think I'm going to start posting the build log tonight finally lol.
     
    And your welcome on the reply, glad I could help.

    Hey I was wondering, what about the usual front ports like the audio and USBs, does he include that or no?

    GoneCruising is awesome. I had him do a few side panels for me and his work is amazing. Prices were really fair too.

    That all depends on the setup and what you guys figure out. You'd just have to email him and go from there.

    MountainMods cases - excellent for big water cooled rigs.

    You can choose what type of window panels, what configuration of front panel you want (like how many and what size of openings for optical drives, fan controllers, etc. are on the front panel), what finish you want on it, horizontal or vertical mount motherboard tray, you can even configure to have 2 systems in one case if you want. Have a look at their flash-powered case builder to get some idea. If you actually mean you want to completely design your own case on a 3D modelling program and have someone make it for you from there... that's going to get very very expensive and you'd have to hunt around for some individual willing to do it for you. Mountain Mods will do custom panels for you, but those are just the panels that attach to the frame. You could always contact them and ask if you want something more than that.

    Yea, what I want to do is have someone make me a case based on my design. I checked out the mountain mods and man they're expensive. I found a case that's almost exactly like what I want but it was like 300$ I might not have a choice but to get that one if getting someone to make me what I want would be too expensive.
    And I don't think lian li would make me my own design.

    If you want someone to custom make an entire case for you from scratch it's going to cost a hell of a lot more than $300 sorry.

    Well the thing is that I want something pretty basic, nothing big like some of those Mountain Mods cases. Like, this is what I pretty much want but I don't know why they would charge so much for it. At the end of the day though, I'm still just looking, not making a PC for maybe another year or 2.
