Futuristic Looking PC?

[Guest Philosophy]

I am looking for a way to make my PC (Both case and on screen) to look futuristic imagine like military looking. I want a Blue/Gold/Black color scheme if possible. My specs are the descriptions. Not Looking to Upgrade Case. I want also Programs that make the OS look more futuristic also.

A lot of paint. 

 

For a military theme you'd want a Corsair Vengeance C70.

Paint the accents of the Inwin S-frame or Spesifikasi S Frame

 

Read the post wrong, spray paint, lots and lots of spray paint.

I'm pretty sure Black Ops 2 has you covered in terms of the design, just roam around some maps to find some futuristic-looking inspiration

Not looking to upgrade my case, I have a Corsair 330R

What do you recommend I do with this paint?

Pray and spray.

Hide the case, tell everyone you have a futuristic computer that is extremely powerful and built into the monitor.

 

Then get a background like this:

The 330r is a pretty standard case and i think i lack the imagination to see it being futuristic. You could try with a lot of paint. Thing i'd imagine is a matte black finish, gold accents and some blue leds. Keep most black though, or else you'd end up with something that looks cheap.

Hahaha, yeah not much you can do about the colour but spray paint it.

I'm rocking a pretty hap-hazard c70 which I might be decor-ing with some warning stripes/labels at intakes and exhausts.

 

Not sure how you'd do a futuristic one though.

Military is mostly practical and not super shiny - contrasting with futuristic - which is premium design/engineering and shiny metallic or minimalist.

 

I suppose you could go for an 'iron man' type look (only with blue), but it'd be difficult to pull off 'futuristic military'.

Try looking into your favourite sci-fi film and pull some design ideas from that.

Could you be looking at the Star-Trek reboot-style (JJ Abrams) design?
 

EDIT: A good program to make things look futuristic is a skin for your desktop - having readouts of CPU temps, load, fan RPM etc, all running in the background. Nothing would make it more futuristic than a custom water loop and a nice set of LEDs to set the stage for the tower. Smaller displays surrounding the main screen would give it that 'work station', 'super computer' look - and wouldn't be too expensive.

 

I was thinking getting a USB powered monitor to use at LAN parties, so you might be able to put it into more use than just aesthetics.

I had the same thought, but I pretty sure he is thinking of what the military looks like in movies where it is super flashy, see thru displays, etc.

For a military themed design if you want something that is fairly easy to do but can have a really good impact I would suggest getting a custom designed vinyl wrap for your case. It's easy to apply and you can create multi layered effects using different colors or textured vinyl films. The easiest place to get stuff cut is probably signage shops that have a vinyl cutter, you can try to do it by hand of course but if it's very intricate it's a good idea to get a machine to do it.

Here is something that i found after a quick search. Just something that could give you some ideas.

I've always wanted military switches built into my desk and I flip them one by one to turn on fans/leds/power/etc. May get old after awhile but seems like a really cool thing in my head.
