S340 modding ideas

[Aaronius_Leonius]

I plan to get an S340 and paint the PCI-E brackets and SSD mounts blue because the s340 doesn't have much blue on it. I also have plans for RGB leds from cablemod.com because those are compatible with ASUS aura and the Motherboard I want has support for it (It's a Z170 Pro Gaming/Aura). I have a thread already in the cases section but I think I will get more ideas here. I want to put on some Vinyl Wrap for a racing stripe or something like moderator W-L suggested in the other thread. I don't really have a clue how I want the Vinyl wrap on it. Any ideas? I would really appreciate it.

Check out this guide on modding stuff. It's really helpful. I agree neither S340 nor H440 has enough blue on it and other case does not have the same superiority in quailty as NZXT. Though do check Apevia, Bitfenix and Sharkoon or Enermax. They might give you more blues.

Thanks. I did bookmark that page so I can see it later. For now, I just want ideas. Definitely will be helpful later on though.

If you really want to mod an S340, you can cut out the PSU shroud so it can be taken off from the front, and hollow out the front panel to turn it into a hinged door.

That would be awesome but I am just looking for aesthetic mods.

Get the white S340 and give it a paintjob on the plain back panel

Maybe. I might do something like that on the black and blue one because that is the color scheme of my setup. I do love that idea though. Imagine the s340 black and blue model but the sides and front are blue too. That would look badass.

I opened up tinkerCAD, loaded up an existing 3d model of the S340 and changed it up. I think this is going to look amazing. I will have to cut the vinyl wrap on the top so it doesn't block the vent and cut the vinyl for the side panel window but it looks great other than that.

Get some vinyl wrap and cover the top fan bracket/panel if you're not gonna use it (you shouldn't if you want positive pressure inside.)

So covering it will help if I am not using it?

Yeah. Less dust coming in.

Thanks. I can easily cut a hole for the vent if i ever need too also. I would have never thought of that on my own.
