In this review I'll be going over many of the features found on the Gigabyte Sumo Omega gaming chassis but will also dive into some of the modding possibilities. Modding is an important part of personalizing your computer, both through component choice and individualizing the chassis. The whole process is a large part of what makes your computer, yours.
