Ben Heck Custom Built Xbox 360 Laptop

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?


Here’s a video with Ben Heck’s custom built Xbox 360 laptop in action, and check out the specs right after.
- Built-in Ethernet port, finally.
- Built-in WiFi adapter, as usual.
- Digital pushbutton volume control rather than a clunky knob. Different, better sounding audio amp
- Flush-mount DVD door and side panels (such as the memory card slots)
- IR sensor for the remote control.
- Two user USB ports.
- More air holes!
- Jasper motherboard.

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
