The idea is simple, I want to make a Star Wars themed build for my office PC.
I am not sure what I want to do yet, but I am thinking along the lines of News Trooper or some similar theme and am considering doing some kind of star wars Jedi RGB themed PC for my gaming PC.
For the office PC I was thinking of going ITX and making some kind of helmet themed PC, perhaps doing a drawing of a Storm Trooper helmet on a case that is, or is similar to a Bitfenix Phenom (shown below).
Then the idea would be to place as much black and white hardware inside as possible.
Right now I am using a Aerocool QS-102 Micro ATX case, but it is terrible and it's bundled PSU is unbearably loud for me. Had to jam the fan closed and replaced it with a fan that is slightly less loud, but I don't want to rely on that for too long.
I am using an Intel Stock cooler right now too, but it isn't very loud as I use an Intel i3 CPU. I have a Noctua NH-D9L sitting here that is just screaming to be used and I really need to get us put in a good system.
For the Jedi themed build I want to go RGB, but not just have some RGB LED strips in the case, but somehow get an RGB lightsaber inside, so that I can go Green, Blue, Purple, red or whatever colour takes my fancy.
Right now I'm not sure how I will get an RGB lightsaber to work, but you can get LED Lightsaber chopsticks which could potentially be modded.
Perhaps RGB lights around the rebellion or jedi logo?

Case ideas, theme ideas and hardware ideas would be greatly appreciated,
