    Simple and cheap case mod using acrylic paint on Sting Pro Crystal (011D knockoff)

    Trying to build a low cost mod starting with the case. Thinking about painting some parts of the motherboard and the GPU.

    Specs
    • Case: Sting Pro Crystal
    • Motherboard: X570 Aorus Xtreme
    • CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 AE (it's a miracle that it worked on an X570 board)
    • RAM: 16gb TForce Delta 2666mhz
    • GPU: Sapphire Vega 56 Pulse
    • PSU: Seasonic M12ii 520w
    Looking to get more fans, a 360 AIO that is going to be mounted on top and some custom cables.

    Putting some masking tape, the masking tape is not very good quality so there are a lot of imperfections in the edges

    After painting with some acrylic paint and a sponge.

    Lot's of imperfections along the edges but I learned a lot during the process
