a. Name of mod:
"LAN-Party RGB Case Mod 2020 ( Wood Edition )"



b. Description of my case mod:

Idea

For my "LAN-Party RGB Case Mod 2020 ( Wood Edition )" case mod I will use an Black Aluminum Suitcase and some nice aluminums rods in "mirror like" finish for the Frame Structure combined with some nice wood.

I will use some nice RGB components for my Case Mod.

I will build it up in an modular way inspired by the modular way the Cooler Master MasterCase Series is made. If I build it up in an modular way the Case Mod will be something like an test bench.

Module 1: The Aluminium Suitcase

Module 2: The Frame Structure Design with nice wood

Module 1 & Module 2

Module 1 + Module 2: Module 2 fits into Module 1 = For safe transportation
Module 1 + Module 2: Module 2 fits on top of Module 1 = Test Bench = Portable High-end Gaming Case Mod


Aluminium Suitcase

TOOLMATE DT-932078 - 460 x 335 x 150 mm

c. Introducing Pictures:

Some introducing pictures of my case modding project.


Module 1: The Aluminium Suitcase




Module 2: The Frame Structure Design with Motherboard Tray




Safe transportation: Module 2 fits into Module 1




Test Bench: Module 2 fits on top of Module 1





d. Test Bench:

Some information and pictures about Test Bench.

In hardware terms I think Test Bench is most of all used by Overclockers.


"Test Bench" - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_bench

A test bench or testing workbench is an (often virtual) environment used to verify the correctness or soundness of a design or model, for example, that of a software product.

The term has its roots in the testing of electronic devices, where an engineer would sit at a lab bench with tools for measurement and manipulation, such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, soldering irons, wire cutters, and so on, and manually verify the correctness of the device under test (DUT).

In the context of software or firmware or hardware engineering, a test bench refers to an environment in which the product under development is tested with the aid of software and hardware tools. The suite of testing tools is often designed specifically for the product under test. The software may need to be modified slightly in some cases to work with the test bench but careful coding can ensure that the changes can be undone easily and without introducing bugs.
