Red Team Modders: Steampunk PC Case Mod Contest!

Wally_AMD_0-1690405671472.jpeg

Just a reminder to all of you interested in creating something new! Be sure to enter the Red Team Steampunk PC Case Mod Contest. A contest where the AMD staff will select and reward a winner for sharing his/her creation with us.

Here is how it works:

If you haven't yet, join the Red Team Modders Group (you're already one step ahead)! Then submit up to 8 pictures of your Steampunk-inspired PC Mod, along with a description and the specifications. Be sure the pictures are clear, high res, and not out of focus. This is your official entry into the contest.

Entries must be submitted by Saturday, September 30 at 12:00 PM CT

The top three entries will be announced by Tuesday, October 3rd, 2023. The winner will be announced by Friday, October 6th, 2023. These will be judged by the AMD staff using the following criteria:

When looking at the PC Case Mod, the judges will ask themselves questions like:

  • Design: “Does the mod look like it belongs in the Steampunk era? If so, how well is it showcased?”, “Do the keyboard, monitor, and mouse match the case?”, “How easily does the Mod visually convey Steampunk? ”, etc. 
  • Customization: “Does the Mod feature a special cooling fan(s), custom paint job, and/or logos/symbols?”, “Does the Mod have a special compartment for the power unit or cooling system? Any special RGB lighting (inside and outside) of the case that gives it a steampunk look?”, “Any LEDs, valves, lamps, steam-like gadgets?” 
  • Quality: “Does the Mod have any noticeable scratches?”, “Is it dusty or dirty?”, “Are parts dangling inside the case?”, etc. 
  • Cable management: “Are all the cables inside the rig nicely organized, tied, and sorted together? Is there anything left dangling or lose?”, “Do the colors of the cables resemble the steampunk genre?”, etc.

The winner will be announced by Friday, October 6, 2023.

About the prize, the winner gets the following:

I hope we get at least 20 entries.  The prize is certainly worth the effort of doing this mod.

Two days to go!  I know which build I would vote for (if I had a vote, which I don't), but maybe there will be a last minute entry?
