That's what I call a PC case

[billyskank]

Totally silent. No fans, all cooling done by heat pipes and heatsinks.

700 pounds though :o

1. I am not letting my husband see that

We would have it on our step tomorrow. He's never met a PC part he didn't like, except maybe the Thermaltake liquid cooled system. The pump went out within the first week!

Something tells me he already knows....he's just waiting until he gets home to save up the money.

:hi:

2. Use "hide thread"

;)


:hi:

[Solon]

3. I like this one better.

Or how about this one:



Or the Cube:

4. Cool! Lego computer

:bounce:

[Solon]

6. That last one is on sale on E-bay for about 600 bucks...

But I think I could do better, so I'm thinking of building my own lego computer case. A cool project, if possibly a waste of time.

[billyskank]

8. It did look like he may have airflow difficulties

it all looked a bit cramped in there.

I suspect a Lego PC case would have to be pretty big to allow room for the heat to dissipate from reasonable-spec components.

[Solon]

9. Its probably the reason for the extra fan...

For the Graphics card at least. Though, I figure, if you configure it right, you could have the "Holey" pieces in the right place, and place a larger fan inside the case and you could have a REALLY small case with excellent airflow in and out of the case.

5. 700 quid would be less confusing for some of our DUers

;-)

[billyskank]

7. Hmm good point

Although it looks like it weighs around 700 pounds too. :)

[DS1]

10. I thought it was a low-tech approach of physical security

as you'll need to arrive with about 4 of your strongest buddies to get it into a truck. However, your server room would probabyl collapse right through the computer floor and through the desk of the poor sap the floor below.

[billyskank]

11. Definitely no good for lanparties

:D

[DS1]

12. You could always shackle yourself to it in case of a tornado

[billyskank]

13. Turn it off and get inside it

And when you die, they can bury you in it! :bounce:

[DS1]

16. Or make it your headstone

and keep a USB connection alive so anyone can show up and listen to Metallica for free, just to piss off Lars Ulrich

[Solon]

18. Better idea...

Make it your headstone, with a speaker built in, have a small pressure plate right over where you are buried, and then, when someone steps on it, the headstone says: "Help me!".

[crispini]

21. LOL, I was wondering why it was so heavy!

:rofl:

[ScreamingMeemie]

23. Hey! At least he didn't post it in grams...

;)

[billyskank]

24. Hi MrsGee!

:hi: :hug:

[Solon]

14. Wonder if you could grill hotdogs on that thing?

Well, I guess only if it has an Intel chip in it! :evilgrin:

[billyskank]

15. I think you could certainly turn the heating down

in the room in which you put it. :)

Your cat would probably want to sleep near it. Drying your trousers on it might be a no-no though. ;)

[Solon]

17. Cats already sleep on top of the Monitor...

I wouldn't let them near this thing, burnt cat hair would STINK! :)

[Neoma]

19. Too heavy!

[tjwmason]

20. Geek.

:P

Oh - whoops - you take that as a compliment don't you. :P

Mildred is usually pretty quiet - but from time-to-time her fan things switches on which makes some noise.

[billyskank]

22. You called?

;)

My PC is way too noisy. On a bad day it sounds like a wind tunnel. x(

[GirlinContempt]

25. ooooooooo I WANT IT

[billyskank]

26. You know it, you GEEK

:loveya:
