Mod of the Month January 2012

We've got a whole new year to look forward to when it comes to modding here on bit-tech. 2011 was a fantastic year to look back on, though, and if you missed our annual modding competition - Mod of the Year 2011 - head over to the article to feast your eyes on some of the best projects of last year.

Congratulations, of course, goes to forum member L3p with his scratch built desk L3p D3sk - Silent Workstation claiming the crown in 2011. Back to 2012 and there's plenty to catch up on in our modding forums and we've got six new ones for you to feast your eyes on this month. If you're new to bit-tech and modding, or haven't ventured into our forums yet, make sure you check out our Modding and Project Logs forums, as well as our Modding section, where you'll find guides and articles written by the makers of some of the best projects we've seen.

Also don't forget bit-tech's Case Mod Index - a database of case mods which allows you to see what has been done with particular case makes and models - great if you're new to modding or lacking some inspiration - we need you to submit your projects too. Head over to the article to see how.

We're proud to have the legendary Mnpctech sponsoring Mod of the Month. The Mnpctech guys are regulars on our forums and, in addition to being avid modders themselves with some awesome projects to their names, the Mnpctech online store is also well worth a visit from every modder.

Thanks to Mnpctech for stumping up such fantastic prizes again this month. We've got six very promising projects for you again, so it's time to vote for your favourites.

You should consider potential, originality, execution and show of skill when voting.
