Modding is to change, alter or play around with computer parts (mainly cases).

People have custom built cases they have designed themselves.

Here is a link to a mod

If you are referring modding in Video Games, basically a mod could be something like instead of a pistol shooting a bullet in the game, someone could mod it to shoot explosives.

Modding a games console is when you install a "mod chip" to make it do things the maker did not intend.

    Modding = Moddifying.

    In hardware, it is the physical modification of a certain object, or usually a part of the computer case, to make it look a different way. But "mods" could also be done for purposes other than vanity.

      Quite so. I was making a joke. Modding - Moddifying. Two "D"s.
      But again, I thank you. I just hope I'm not taking too much of your valuable time.
