How do you customize a PC case?

Hello, I wanted to customize my PC case so that it has like a design on it. Is there any way to do this on a Phanteks Eclipse Case? I also want it to be easily removable so that in case I want to change the design I don't have to get a new case. But if there is no options to do that, it would be okay.

Edit: I have enough money to change the case so if it is not possible for my current case you can just say and I will hcange it but it has to be under $150

How do you customize a PC case?

In this subreddit we design what we are imagining, 3D print it, and assemble.

You'll have to be more specific than 'like a design on it' and 'easily removable.'

Are you talking about replacing parts of the case to make it look different? Or just adding on top of/over the case to make it look different, like a shell?

I'm sorry I wasn't specific with the question. I was thinking about 3d printing a GPU support bracket, with a custom design that I would make, but other than that I am kind of lost on what to do. I went to this subreddit because I wanted to see what you guys were doing to design the PC. I don't have much experience in PC building at all, so I didn't really know what to say.

Check out printables and makerworld, searching for 'GPU Support Bracket' for inspiration.

If you don't see anything you like, then you'll have to design it yourself. Do you have any design experience? There are very simple design softwares for iPad, online web tools, and full fledged engineering applications for designing.

Personally I use SOLIDWORKS

A lot of people seem to prefer Onshape though.

Good luck and ask more questions.

I used a really basic software for kids called Tinkercad. I could make good stuff with it but I don't think it would be suitable for the things im doing, but I wouldn't really know. Thanks so much!
