If you’re looking to mod your case or add extra features, Xoxide is definitely the way to go. Even if you just want to get a few cheap parts for your side project PC their clearance items will make you pleased. I got a random 400W ATX power supply for $9.99, although their description says at least 400w I managed to receive a 450w instead. I also got the Logisys Jumbo Multicolor Lazer LED just to turn on when I want a little extra in my case. To top it off, I also got the Viking Thumbscrews for the hell of it.  Can’t go wrong with 6 for $0.89.
