razer121's Plasma Ball PC



Case mods don't always need to be pragmatic--or attractive--to be noteworthy. While his mod isn't likely to win beauty pageants, razer121 delivers one of the more unusual chassis designs we've come across.

The embedded plasma ball lends a mad scientist vibe to the colorful case. And the included working cigarette lighter helps to keeps things classy. Though the picture quality isn't great, the custom tubing and the lighting effects reveal a passion for a system that some onlookers would feel a bit squeamish about displaying on their own desks.
