Lego PC case?? **NOW WITH PICS** - Page 10 - Overclock.net

definitely use silicon or even like a clear coat of something on the outside of the legos to keep it airtight. Even use a pice of plixi and can fit between the buttons on the legos haha

Do you have enough legos to make something big in one colour? Thats hard to get enough of to do that.

I think that'd be a really cool idea, how ever, are you sure that'd be sturdy? and excuse me if i sound completely dumb, but would the plastic melt from the heat of the pc? I'd think you'd need a case to build around...?

idk though...
neat idea!

If you can create something like a wind tunnel affect inside, you shouldn't have a problem. As long as air flow is good enough. I think it might depend on the hardware as well. Some get hotter than others.

Oh, alright, yeah, I kind of thought that maybe it'd melt the plastic, but I guess that'd make sinse! I still think that'd be a neat Idea!! .....

oh god, I almost got very girly, and started talking about some lego diamond earings, Lmao..anyway, very cool idea, i wish i were that creative!!!!!!

I've thought about a case like that before but I'd never take the time to actually go through with it. It sounds like a really cool idea though. I really don't think melting would even be an issue. With good airflow it would never get hot enough to melt plastic. I don't have any monitors so I don't know the temps inside my case but I can stick my hand inside through the vent hole while the covers are all on and it never even feels warm. All I have is a 120mm intake in the front and 120mm exhaust in the back and I'm sure a few 80's would do almost as well. If you get it all built and built well with places to mount everything and all I would definately consider buying it.

Maybe. But what about lan party cube made of bricks? At least it would be very portable.
