Project : Xbox 360 In Desktop Pc Case (The Final Stage)

[bjlcampana]

nice job reusing so many case features. My 360 is on its end and I may just do this for fun.

[TheCraigjaay]

hey ive just started a similar project, kinda i wish i hadnt lol. Using a mac G4 case i want to do almost exactly what uve done (apart from i'll mount my HDD inside. PLEEEase can you tell me how to connect the PC psu and how to event the on button, i want to keep them together and will probably mount them on the front of the case. AWsome mod ;D

[tylerwow73]

@RumbleM0NKEY Good for you keep pirating, dumbass.

[Chowbrowns]

Lots of wires inside

[Skiller7777]

the stupid rock music is very important!!!

[slainbybullet]

I would have just bought a new pc.

[SecondHandHunter]

very nice

[charon7111]

WOW! thats freaking amazing.

[MrTeabags121]

whyu would you do that to a perfectly good games console

[TwoGuys1FAIL]

@MrTeabags121 its still perfectly good it just look different you retard.

[vitormangraviti]

Can you mount two DVD drives? One with a flashed firmware and another one with the original firmware to avoid getting banned?

If you do that it will be "THE" XBOX 360.

I was thinking about doing it myself but I simply can't be bored. I've been visualizing a switch for two DVD drives in my mind for quite some time now but I am just too lazy.

Very good project of yours mate. Impressive and very accurate. Congratulations.

[adamruddockshrek]

@vitormangraviti too lazy or just dont know how to do it ? i fancy it aswell but just dunno how and have no expirience with out like soldering , i now have learned how to flash tho so im 1 step closer

[vitormangraviti]

I've been working with this kind of hardware for about 10 years - I know how to do it.

Soldering is not difficult if you have a sturdy and steady hands and the appropriate bits for your soldering iron.

The only reason that makes me not do it is because I am terribly bad with modding cases and this guy here on the video pratically built a case that fits the MB, the drive, the buttons and everything else perfectly.

The switch is no rocket science. Anyone can build it if they have some experience

[TheVectorizing]

so is this a pc and an xbox? can you switch between them? if so thats pretty badass!!

[Biznatched]

@TheVectorizing no.. its an xbox in a pc case. read the title

[halo3productions911]

The people demand a how-to!

Seriously, I'd like to see you give us a tutorial on how you did it. SICK job dude.

[solserchr]

all that and you still haven't learned how to take the 2.5" sata out of the standard case lol :p

[Leacholopolis]

water cooling would have topped this mod off... amazing job man.. im trying to do the same with my xbox... how did you do the expansion cards on the back? I figured out how to do the whole soldering thing with a PC power supply but im not so soure how to hook up the RJ-45 ... video and USB ? .... I have HDMI por on the xbox im using but coudl care less whether or not its used because the "PC XBOX" is going to primarily be used on a PC monitor Via VGA or a crappy low def projector off ebay..

[bananazxy]

THATS AMAZING

[vanfancuuler]

omg u are a god !

[brianesquinas]

even i kinda dont like xbox, but not hate it, and i love ps3, i find this mod very interesting and awesome! fuck the racists! love the mod men imma think to buy also the 360 for the rockband!

[xFr4zeRx]

You should have put the HDD on the top, but good job

[RobMonty1987]

Aw I thought this was a PC + a 360 in a case...

[magicstk2000]

this is awsome bet it runs 10 times cooler and the blue leds look sick and i like the way the hard drives are set up and the inside actually looks pretty clean ive seen regular pc's that look way worse thumbs up man

[DeathWing230]

fucking awsome man i wish i had skills like you

[TheLowno7142]

cool i alwats wanted to see my two favorite sytems put together

[XxCoDOPSxX]

whats the advanage of doing this?

[clockwise3559]

@XxCoDOPSxX better cooling, and a quiter system

[guywith2names]

@XxCoDOPSxX better cooling

[xConway22x]

how did you make that vga or analog switch? would you put up a tut? or pm me with instructions or a link to do so?

[TheUnknownShit]

damn this thing is sweet its messy inside but who cares

[littleohah]

idea i have three xboxes i might try one in my cool master neons water cooling fuk yeah RROD proof the shit out of it

[reneclos]

god bless mexico

[reneclos]

motherfucker looks first learn to focus camera whore shit ok xd

but after playing music so no mames cabron rump other ogt your design is ok fucking fucking shoe box with handle portfolio of Colleges of please delete the fucking video of BEI m ok tell me if I give a case for your Xbox "" asshole ""ok I leave motherfucker

[ryanhoustonuk]

@reneclos learn english before trying to abuse :) you Taliban bin raiding black bastard :)

[kanistas]

this song was aweseome...

[xXMNM808Xx]

pls answer. Did it get the ring of death?

[PearZeaL]

NIce dude,.

[RumbleM0NKEY]

This is actually pretty sick, was thinking of doing this with my 360, but I just built a PC. Much easier (lazy), and unlimited free games (torrents), better graphics. I just play halo reach, thats all my xbox is good for.

[zt14427]

This is really picky, but if you want to make it even more kick ass, make a cable that turns two male sata cables into one, and have a switch on the joint so you can toggle between the internal and the external without having to open the case. That would give it a really "gift-wrapped" feel. BTW how sturdy is it, because when i mod, if I shake the thing too hard, the thing breaks :P. If you could make one for me, I would buy it for $350. Nice vid, just about jizzed.

[pkzproductions]

its cool but why make it takeup more space?

[dkconor]

@pkzproductions Less overheating.

[betaosobreira]

Man, really awesome. But I'd go far. You could put some coolers with good air flow and temperature sensors, and maybe a LCD Fan Controller in any bay. But this project is nice!! Congrats!!

[cisco760ca]

Thats pretty cool bud . I Bet it was alot cheaper that paying for a lian li xbox 360 case witch they ask for a arm and leg.

[Xenokiller2179]

How did you mount the motherboard? Were the holes custom drilled?

[mmr061485]

Man, You'd think since you spent all that money on a PC Case Xbox you'd of bought a better quality video camera...

[Me4Gameplay]

@mmr061485 you can get pc cases like this for about 30 bucks you tard

[badbradmx]

@Ps2gooru be better if it was xbox or linux, as you could, cant anymore i dont think, run linux on the 360

[hyperrr336]

this is awesome if you could integrate the projector you could make a lot of money

[hyperrr336]

this is awesome

[experimental0000]

@Ps2gooru There's already a PC on the market that is a PC with an Xbox 360 mobo added in and both run seperately in the same big case so you could use both at the same time. it's the Origin Big O PC

[VincentFunk]

What? It's big and takes up a crap load of space. There are other ways to cool an Xbox and still make it good. Not my fault he built a Frankenstein Xbox. Ive seen worse mods, but this still isn't on of the better ones.

[MotoHarmer]

@DanielChristy19 You can Boot Linux on a Xbox 360 , But you need a Jtag , But if you wanted to boot XP you would have to reflash the Nand

[MotoHarmer]

@DanielChristy19 You cannot , the xbox specs dont match to run xp ,

[MotoHarmer]

Must of taken you ages

[gatorfanaticv2]

dude open the hard drive case its just a sata 2.5 inch, and you can get the conversion to make it 3.5 so then you wouldnt have the shit on the side lookin ugly

[murk200]

pone un tutorial como ponerla en un case xD kiero meter la mia en uno ajajaaj porfaaaaaa

[igloo098]

well done with this mod dude

ignore the haters, it takes alot of effort, hard work and brains to do this

(actually getting an xbox 360 to work inside a desktop case)

this is a proper mod which very few people can do well done dude

[akatsukiamp]

xbox 720

[jooppac]

Pretty Good!

[techkid100]

Personally, I wouldnt do this in my spare time. But I do really like it! GOOD JOB!

[luanswan2002]

Don't listen to all the haters. This is awesome good job. Haters gonna hate.

[EdDandSiko]

it sucks,

[puggster]

Dude.. to fuck what those other tards think, that is one dam sweet case there!..

yeah its a maze of wires inside but it a price to pay to have it done right,

I'm a qualified PC technician o i know first hand what obstacles and work would need done to get everything working,

the xbox case i a piece of crap and to to get everything functioning inside an awkwardly laid out pc case is sommit else

good job, on the build, and stick a middle finger up to haters, there just Jealous!

[mattyboys33]

@puggster NOT TROLLING

i think the actuall terem is trolls and i agrre one sweat case

[Adrianlblue18]

@puggster I think you missed the point. For a mod (From what we see here) he has done a poor job. Probably a hundred dollars and a couple more day would have left a better look for the PC - XBOX.

[FestMonster]

@puggster Here Here

[boomy818]

looks very..GAY.......

[themidnightdaylight]

Ya but now wont RROD so... E74! Son of a BI**H!

[ThrustGameplay]

sw3eeeet

[cygmarx]

Very well done. Man it's a clusterfuck of cables on the inside but the end result looks so clean on the outside.

To those of you hating and asking what the point is? Because it's his money and his life - he can do whatever the fuck he wants with his 360 and who are you to judge? I imagine his 360 is very well cooled with all those fans and it looks kick ass. Props to you.

[jaxager]

wow. all y'all asking "what's the point" and saying "it looks like shit" need to get a life. do you think that just because this guy isn't sitting in front of you that it is acceptable to be a fucking asshole? and, for your information, this IS a very practical mod. it provides a lot of space for the console to cool off. and if the builder likes it, why do you care so much? assholes.

[gmanpeterson381]

ya it still doesnt seem like there is any space?!?!!? why do you think xbox just came out with the slim obviously people dont want a huge box to lug around weighing 300 pounds

[soniclee1764]

how much dose it cost?

[KCELKABOB65]

Yeah its a bit of a Franken X but I bet its runs cooler. Wouldn't it be nice to have a sponser to to have the choices of cases and hardware. Oh yeah what dvd did you use? I would most likely like a lite on since they have done well for me.

Good Luck in Your future projects. Peace.

[Automobilie]

Nice, seems to work smoothly, but how come you didn't swap in a better heatsink/fan?

[XBOXNationTVHD]

uuummm im not sure what to call this.?

[srspower]

obviously this is pointless but if you are going to do it why not just buy the lian li case thats made specifcally for housing a xbox360? Cos that looks shit.

[jaxager]

@srspower cuz that case cost like a $100. why do you have to be an asshole about it?

[vdubs4life1964]

Nice job!

[hehehaw]

Looks great although I would have loved to have seen internal HDD, although tbh I couldn't do any of this myself!

[Danielvalen82]

maybe you should design the next one you make because that on sucks... you made it bigger!! whats the point!

[MultiFavre]

@Danielvalen82 what's wrong with a bigger case? it fixes the cooling problem. wont get the rrod as easily i guess

[MultiFavre]

well at least the cooling problem is fixed great job

[adriantjuuh]

what is the last song in de clip what is the name of it i want that song

[br0productions]

I did the same thing, just a tad different. I still got most of my pc components which enables me to use my computer still.

[xXORAnG3Xx]

actually not a bad idea.. im looking at a mini itx case for my 360.. because xbox looks like shit in my setup.. but you could get a little nicer case.. and maybe a 5.25 slide out tray for the HDD.. anyways nice 360!

[999grassy]

awsome

[DaZeBoYy]

Good job dude

[11window]

show me when it rrods

[zoomer2444]

thats preety cool dude!

[1momerat99]

what kind of projector are you using?

[RALLIARTMENACE]

several reasons the laptop deal would be wikked sick if it would also have to be a tank..... he might just like a challenge im in the process of doing a similar project with a broken one if you dont plan on moving it around or from where it is not a bad idea to open the mobo up into a more breathable case efficiency and longevity reasons it is a MS computer essentially im doing it cause i have a two year old that broke the psu on mine picked up and dropped it he cant pick up the pc case

[ikilluish]

Does the original Xbox 360 use a PC-standard motherboard (like Micro-ITX, Mini-ITX)?

[Glockenator]

It's friggin huge, but I bet it runs alot cooler

[halogenik]

don't listen to the haters bro you did an outstanding job with the mod.

[JustEminemFan01]

maannn ive never seen such a shit before :D

[hillman122]

why didnt u use a smaller case like mx ones

[wudisciple]

Nice work dude, but I hate to say it, this is all pretty pointless. You've quadrupled the size of the console with no obvious gain and probably added a shitload of weight too.

If you had watercooled it then i'd have no criticism... but people have managed to fit internal watercooling into the factory casing already anyway...

p.s. I know a few geeks that would have burst into tears had they seen your cable 'management' lol

[jdcrispe95]

FUCKING HELL!! i would buy this... how much?

[CrushelCurse]

The pc case for xbox 360 is pretty useful because now more air and flow through the case and you can add more additional things with all that space inside that case!

[TH3DUBBSMODZ]

It looks sweat, Is it liquid cooled?

[mungoz4lif]

well hmm it could be better thonk you could combine it with ps3 wii well maybe not the wii but i hope you have a nice moding life for you good job thow

[WinkingGeof2]

verry cool man, I wanted to do the samething, so my xbox wouldn't overheat as bad... but i don't have the time... so verry cool keep up the good work, wish i had something like it!!!

[ptrgr]

the case is a mess, you need to tidy the inside of the case.

[81minuten]

this is verry hand for water cooling of a xbox 360

[fofo45452]

I kinda like it :D

[the0cup0is0halfempty]

if you were guna mod you should have just bought an xcm case this just looks klunky

[lordlight1000]

brilliant idea

[laledo650]

gay wtf why would u do that? lol

[poodle2426]

@laledo650 because th xbox over heats and a pc case is bigger, with more space for ventilation and bigger better fans. stop trolling retards use some common sense.

[Otissor]

thats so gay. wannabe PC gamer.

[HLRSR]

hey im doing the same thing and am just wondering if you had to do anything extra for the wireless to work like extending the receiver ,im not up to this bit but would like to Know Cheers Cameron

[ARDINM004]

you kno the romote u have for the console i have that but dunno how to set it up... any tips

[ARDINM004]

cool nice job, this is 4 people saying whats the point, n id say the point is the CPU isn't sitting under the x-clamps and everything else so it dosn't over heat and get the three red rings and now his Xbox is unique and stand out more than a normal Xbox, i think its cool, the only thing id change would be the blue led lights on the external hard drive and the side fan, id change em to green to match the rest of it but still nice job.

[whitedemon03]

it would be cool if u dual booted it with linux, but its gay if you just change the casing for know reason?

[cjkuhlenbeck]

Its cool. i wouldve put the HDD inside the case though, outside looks kinda outta place. Also, although i dont agree with how the others said it, i do agree that id prefer it smaller. On that same note, i dig the lian li case.

[paulmariani1976]

nice mod man. looks sweet, and i'll bet the extra cooling helps

[HackAndMod]

So god damn pimp

[PunkyDoughnut]

tbh to all of the haters it will probably run much smoother and better cooling system :) nice work man :D

[shigalbigal]

That's actually very good, you deserve props for your hard work

[VincentFunk]

Bigger, Bulkier, Gayer. Not much of a mod. Waste of time.

[jimakos666]

@VincentFunk

Yeahhh. I need my life back!!! :'(

[jdcrispe95]

@jimakos666 actually, its pretty awesome..

[EroThraX]

@VincentFunk Why does it matter if its "Bigger" or "Bulkier", It is an xbox 360, it sits in one place plugged into a TV. But now it is less likely to overheat.

[the0cup0is0halfempty]

@EroThraX wouldnt another fan or something else to cool it down be a better solution.... or a ps3

[xG33Kx]

@VincentFunk I think it's more of a waste of time to make stupid comments on youtube ;)

[FeeLtheHertZ]

@VincentFunk Describes you man, not this mod, decent mod jimako

[Toxemia83]

@VincentFunk Bigger, Bulkier, Gayer? Sorry but we don't need to know the way you look.. hahaaa >_<

[simon4000dk]

When that message with "Ok now... Power on...!" I imagined it smoking or something haha

[BOS6940]

i know this aint about the projector but what projector is it??

i have an optoma projector

[chrisdietlmeier]

That must have taken u lOooaoaaddddsss of time bet ur proud ^^

[GOPACKERSJT]

you should have just cracked open the hdd and connected it thru the sata ports. Those things are nothing but lap top hard drives. Great job though!

[KamelFilms]

Still not sure what the point is but its cool none the less. Not everything needs a point i guess?

[CallMeMrLennox]

i like it

[prisonking101]

did you use the xclamps?

or screws and washers to attach the heat sinks?

[Golfa4life265]

what is the point

[jimakos666]

@Golfa4life265 Of posting?

[videonut1991]

@Golfa4life265

The point is he put it into a PC case do you realize what he can do with it now cooling add additional hard drives he modded an xbox is proud of it.

[prisonking101]

tell me.. is it still working or did it overheat and get rrod?

[TheOnlyDuST]

@prisonking101 it would actually stay alot cooler that way if done correctly

[prisonking101]

@TheOnlyDuST my xbox 360 got fixed by me 100 times before it broke!

thats 4 years out of my 2006 xbox 360!!

[prisonking101]

@prisonking101 did you use the xclamps?

[THATS1CK]

@r81gsr95

360s look cooler then ps3s L

[TheOnlyDuST]

@THATS1CK please state a fact, that is not a fact.

[jonathan4171]

Dood thats awsome

[BLACKRAFUNKY]

that looks f..... nice man good job

[smurfMC86]

nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jamalakj]

y not put the hdd in the case?

[1momerat99]

this is very kool i am very impressed great job

[ArgosWarrior]

Why didnt you just build a pc it could on and would of been far better than any lame xbox 360 Damn what a waste of time and money

[1momerat99]

if ppl didnt experiment with projects like this we probably wouldnt be as far as we are now ya know

[abergethirty]

Maybe you could have used the audio for a running commentary rather than this Emo music bed.

[nicolasrogervais]

Incubus....emo?!....you are the pinnacle of intelligence. Bravo.

[abergethirty]

You forgot to add "maaaaahhhhhn" to the end of your sentence.

[mojopanel]

You do know you cold take out the hard drive out of the case then stick the 2.5 (Laptop Hard Drive as that what it is) then make up a longer connector then use the connector from the hardrive make it longer then with a bit of modding you get a longer cable and you hardrive is inside.

[tchby1031]

i bet that thing runs really cool since all that hardware is not confined in that small 360 case!!!!

did that ban you from live??? or do software mods ban you from xbox live?????

[MrGoboka]

Network Manipulation willg et you banned, Enhancin the Hardware of an Xbox 360 Voids th warranty and in some cases is illegal, in such a case say I were to Edit the Software, hardware or anything inbetween, it would invade the copyright and you could get charged if they found out.

[liamgreen94]

@tchby1031 only software ( i think)

[Ripklawe]

Awesome case. Wouldn't mind one myself.

1 star only though because you played stupid ass music and had huge white text in the vid when you could have been more in depth with a voice over of the project.

Sure wish people would learn that we do not want to hear your crappy music in vids like this.

Again, awesome build but video could have been done better.

[doublebass2]

ela re elladara!!!!protoi kai sti montifa...mporo n asai rotiso kati?sxediazo kai go en axbox 360 se pc,alla de ksero pos na zitiso to kalodio poy syndeei to skliro me ti motherboard..genika ti kalodia xrisimopoihses?

[Mg0901]

Where do u get the wires for all th ports

[MrGoboka]

Yo can pick some of them u at RadioShack or other assorted hardware and software dealers.

[iron888888]

WTF XDDDDDDD NICE 3/4

[DANOBILL]

haha no wonder they have heating problems it even looks crammed in that big case

[GR3C0C]

That's pretty sweet, I don't like where he mounted the hard drive, but looking inside, he didn't have much of a option.

[ickilla2009]

to everyone that is stupid the reason he did this is to prevent the RROD since the major reason is do to the small case and such a powerful computer since thats all the 360 is so now it stays 10 times cooler then in a small case

[intupspaturken]

i agree i want my 360 to breath
