No Official Collab Case for Your Style? Here's How to Get a Custom PC Case Design

Themed PC cases are everywhere right now. Case manufacturers team up with games, anime studios and streamers to release limited editions with exclusive artwork. They look amazing – but there's a catch: if there's no edition for your style, or it sold out months ago, you're out of luck.

The good news: you don't need an official edition to get a PC that looks exactly the way you want. Here's how official editions and custom designs compare.

Official collab cases: the pros and cons

What's great about them:

• Exclusive artwork
• Often matching accessories like desk mats or keycaps
• Collectible value as limited editions

Where they fall short:

• Limited choice. Only a handful of themes ever get an edition.
• Hard to get. Many are sold through pre-orders and are gone quickly.
• Expensive. You pay for a whole new case, even if you love the one you have.
• Fixed design. Everyone with the same edition has the same look.

Custom PC case designs: your style, your case

A custom PC case skin takes the opposite approach. Instead of buying a new themed case, you keep your current case and give it an artwork made for you.

• Any theme you can imagine. Anime, cyberpunk, kawaii, pastel goth, fantasy, cottagecore – or a mix.
• Your colors. Matched to your room, your lighting or your desk setup.
• Your case. Cut to the exact size of your glass panels.
• One of a kind. Nobody else has the same design.
• Removable. SmartGrip holds without glue and can be peeled off again – your case stays untouched.

What a custom design can include

A custom design is built around your idea, your mood and your colors. If you're a streamer or VTuber, it can also include your own logo, emotes or avatar.

Which one is right for you?

• Choose an official edition if there's one for exactly what you love, it's still available and you want a new case anyway.
• Choose a custom design if you want to keep your case, can't find a theme that fits, or want a look nobody else has.

How to start your custom design

1. Collect a few reference pictures and colors you like.
2. Note your exact PC case model and which panels you want covered.
3. Order your custom skin and send us your idea – you'll see a design preview before anything is printed.
