Ben Heck Custom Built Xbox 360 Laptop

Super-sized Xbox 360 Laptop Revision Five

Probably the king of casemodding, Ben Heck’s (or Benjamin J Heckendorn) latest incarnation of a portable Xbox is this amazing revision 5 laptop of his portable Xbox 360 console. Based on a Gateway 1775W laptop, this one bad mofo portable system is based on a Jasper motherboard, features a built-in Ethernet port, digital push button volume controls, and a flush mounted optical drive.

Other than these, the super-sized Xbox 360 laptop uses a 17-inch widescreen LCD monitor (running at 720p resolution), packs WiFi, USB ports, and memory card slots. But for such a cute (Andrew will hate the word for sure) monster to breath, there’s a better bracket to hold the fans v for improved ventilation.

He sure did a great job cramming such a beefy system into a portable case that will get all your friends “wow”. Too bad this one is already spoken for … No?

      I prefer a custom-built system. A lot of pre-built systems lack certain hardware (bottlenecks) or invest too much in unnecessary equipment (1 TB Hard drive with onboard graphics for a “gaming PC”).
      To help me choose the equipment I like using online configurators. Some of them even check the compatibility of your chosen products.

      This is awesome! I’ve shown it to a bunch of people and we all agree – we would pay quite a bit for this
