The #CMWS18 Case Mod World Series officially begins now. Each year, modders from around the world showcase their creative ideas and craftsmanship with the most inspiring and jaw-dropping creations to push the limits of PC design. Brought to you by a community of modders and creators, this year #CMWS18 will crown the best MOD creations and take it to a whole new level.
With so many different styles of case modding it is only right that Cooler Master has different categories that you can enter.
TOWER MOD
Your entry must be built with a Cooler Master Case
All Cooler Master cases are acceptable regardless of size or year released
The case must still retain its original look and structure to be considered a Tower category
If you use a Cooler Master Case, but you modified the overall frame and structure then it will be considered a ‘SCRATCH BUILD’
SCRATCH BUILD
Your entry must be built without the use of a pre-existing Case
There is no limitation on what materials can be used to house components
Final project must contain at least one Cooler Master product that is clearly identifiable (fans are acceptable)
If a pre-existing case is used in your mod process no other manufacturer logos from said case can be displayed in the final project
BEST COOLING SOLUTION AWARD
Your cooling solution must be a working solution for managing the temperature of the mod
There is no limitation on materials used as part of the cooling
This sub-category is a bonus award, which means your entry still qualifies for Tower, Scratch and People’s Choice and any other sub-categories
OTHER AWARDS
More categories and awards will be announced.
