Performed Mods:
Ive painted all 4 panels white and other small parts like the PSU bracket. Applied a sticker with my nickname. Also ive cutout and mounted windows in the sidepanels. Ive made 2 switches. 1 for the 5 voltage(Cold cathodes) and 1 for the 12 voltage(NZXT LED Sleeve).
HAF XB White Mod. This is my little Ice cube. But my setup is not entirely done. I still want to fill out my remaining RAM slots, when the prices drop a little. Also iam getting a 27 inch monitor in a couple of weeks. Iam pretty satisfied with the results of this build. There are plenty HAF XB's out there, but mine is the first white ive seen. Tell me what you think!

Nicely done build but I don't see it so unique. ;(
Then again I'm not a modder and my computer looks boring so I shouldn't be talking lol.

HAF XB Fan

Very nice lay out. The HAF XB is such a underestimated case. The Color scheme is quite striking and the side windows are exquisite. I am so happy to see others also enjoying this case as much as I have. Clean, original and excellent cable management, I give it a 10. Thank you for sharing

Thanks.

Thanks for the kind words. Iam indeed enjoying this case. Its a case that begs for modding!
Iam really satisfied with the result. I wasnt sure what it would look like in white, but in my opinion, its better in white.
