but if legos melt at 80 degrees and so do cpus my mac would have melted 10 secs after its  first boot :) nice build

Looks like a minecraft pc...

question how many lego bricks did you need i want to build a media center type case from lego either a cube case or a silverstone media center type case but obviously from lego as lego means you can design it in what ever way you want and also is lego safe someone told me it could get hot and melt have you had any issues with heat melting lego bricks

[DrPcfix]

if you ever run into heat problems to the point of worrying that your bricks might melt then you have more important issues.

You need temperatures of above 80 degrees Celsius for the bricks to actually melt and that means your CPU is melting along with them.

Install a quite 80mm fan leave some space for airflow.

Regarding the amount of bricks you will need i would say around 1000 pieces.

Visit bricklab.eu there are many picture galleries that might assist you.

have fun building !

@DrPcfix bitch please, my cpu runs at 95 Degrees celcius for over 12 hours sometimes when rendering a 3ds Max Scene.

Please Get some information on processor limits and thermal capacity before you give advice on this subject

[DrPcfix]

Catastrophic failure according to intel occurs at 125C, ABS plastic melts at 120C. Optimal perfomance is below 55C and under heavy load 80C is considered too hot. With TTC enabled an Intel based computer should shutdown at a temperature of your choice. Mine is 80C yours evidently isn't. Boasting about and old computer with poor ventilation that struggles to render and comparing it to an HTPC is... erm ... meaningless. Also, in case we missed the point, Lego Brick Cases do not melt!

@DrPcfix dr noob, silence. you got no idea whether or not my pc is new or old. it is new, really new, just gots a few dust bunnys which i cleaned out last night. second.it's fan cooled so the minimum temperature it can drop to is the ambient temperature. continuing, my laptop is really new and exceeds the $1600 mark, i also got a dual CPU. DUAL CPU MEANING TWO CPUS. AND NOT TWO CORES. DUAL CPU, WITH 6 CORES EACH.workstation by colfax. but i rarely use it for Large Res renders 4096*XXXX

[jmans25]

lol the song name made me laugh

[Strider1526]

You should make a blueprint on how to make this. I'd buy it :)

[elchicoboy]

wow that's awesome!

[sonicase]

reminds me of some building in bladerunner

[MixerVM]

Is this for sale

[psion0027]

i ws thinking of make an atx case about the size of a normal pc. how did you mount the motherboard? did you use risers? if so how did you install them?

[digidev]

awesome case!!! i have the same mother board and was wondering how to overclock it using the new bios wich allows you to control the voltage. any tips??

[8940905]

is oyur pc overheating alot??

your HDD is just laying there and i see only one 90mm fan

[yagadan]

It looks like the mother ship, especially when the flaps are down... get ready for take off !

[DecepticonDc5]

thats pretty awesome, where did you get the little power button?

[DrPcfix]

@DecepticonDc5

The power button was custom made using a random switch some calbe and soldering.

I'll soon post more details but it is still work in progress

this was just a test video
