Case mods provide some giggles, sure, but how many of them that we’ve seen previously would you have actually bought? If I were in the market for one, this Hammerhead HMR98902 would be top of my list.
Designer Matthew Kim is selling them for $US2899, and as he makes them himself (by hand), orders understandably take a while to fill – two weeks, to be exact. Specs include:
Blue CNC brushed and anodized aluminium frame
Supermatte White Ecoresin panels with Mil-Spec quick release system(motherboard side only)
2.8Ghz Intel Core i7-860 cpu
4 Gb ram
1 40 gb Intel solid state disk drive
1 640 Gb front loaded “hot-swappable” hard drive
1 extra hot-swap tray for a second hard drive
nVidia ENGTX460 graphics card
Optical CD/DVD drive
Kingston 750W modular power supply
Windows 7 64-bit Home premium
But you can obviously swap them out for your preferred choice. This particular one comes affixed with blue LEDs, but two more models, the HMR98903 & HMR98904, are available in black brushed anodised carbon and quattro carbon trim. [Darwin Machine via Case Mod Blog via Technabob]
