All of the answers were good, but the Corvette engine mod won me over. The Doom mod was my second favorite. Thanks for a great answer!

Here are a ton of photos of this mod being made:

For me, it's the artistry and detail in this case that make it the best I've ever seen. Amazing.

This beaver mod always pops up every time I think of PC case mods.

The coolest case mod I ever saw was no case at all. They took a sheet of plywood and screwed the components to it. Then they hung it on the wall, like a piece of art. It's far more interesting to look at the actual components.

Sorry I don't have a picture of it.

I really like this one - it seems to be very eco-friendly. If you are a tree hugger, this will be the coolest!
here is the description from the site (also laptop cases, etc on the site).

"The Cardboard computer Case Mod is an amazing way to be Green and also have a unique looking computer on your desk, without the weight, senseless plastics and dull look.

Build as an actual functioning desktop, this PC is made of recycled and renewable cardboard, thus making the ability to recycle and get rid of the computer a lot more environmentally friendly and takes a lot of the regular components out of the equation."

The site claims the corrugation works as ventilation ducts. More comments from the designer at engadget.com.

And a cardboard chair to go with that!

Ok...

In CPU mag there was an Eqyptian Case Mod. It was amazing both inside and out. Made with real Marble, hand detailed painting and decal's. The person put in over 5,000 man hour's and didn't achieve the finish untill about 1 to 2 year's after he started. I actually have a picture of it hanging on my Wall in My work Room, where I MOD out case's, xbox's, PS2's and 3's. The detail made it look like it was back in the time period.
