Pyramid PC Will Make Stargate Fans Drool

[MrHectorEric]

Water cooling would have worked well for an enclosure like that. My wife doesn't like the look of my PC with it's large steel case and 3 large monitors; however, I'm pretty sure she'd be even less thrilled with a Goa'uld Ha'tak. Bravo to that guy for making it work and being able to keep it.

It is different to say the least. Least someone out there is innovating.

Don't buy it, its a pyramid scheme!

/sarcasm

Well done, looks nice although I probably wouldn't want one myself.

hordes of cables...? basic cable management solves that, 1 pyramid that golden wont stand out in your living room at all...

2 points for creativeness though

While that's true, I assume the goal here is to have adequate cooling while reducing the noise to a minimum. That's why a suggest using natural physics andd a single fan. Then again, since large 120mm fans are much more quieter than 40-60mm ones, maybe it would be better to have heat pipes going to the bottom of the pyramid with a 120mm fan there. Less noise, equal cooling, no visible holes, and it gives you the impression that the pyramid could hover!

This reminds me more of 5th Element...JMO

What if he went for a Pegasus Star Cruiser or a Wraith ship?

160GB HD... kinda small for a media center, ain't it?
