What if the "rat rod" look was a thing in computers. Like instead of super clean design this was the goal 🤔

Yes! Over the rgb puke in everything. Be nice to brung back those crazy case mods again.

I legitimately had that case on the right and modded it to give a rat rod aesthetic. It didn't look too far off from this pic
