The coolest steampunk gaming PC you'll see all day

Hardcore gamers take their games seriously. Dedicated practitioners of the art of steampunk have no problem taking it too far. When you combine the two, the results can be amazing.

That’s the case with the computer built below. On one hand, it’s a very strong gaming PC based upon the assumed specs. In other words, it’s not all for show – this puppy should be able to do some serious overclocking. On the other hand, the craftsmanship of the steampunking of the computer is profound. It took some serious time and effort to build this bad boy. Even the keyboard alone would have made ourbest steampunk keyboards list.

The gallery, presented on Reddit titled “My attempt at a steampunk PC“, still has many questions surrounding it about the specifics and we will monitor the thread for more details. In the meantime, enjoy the epic visuals…

This Incredible Steampunk Computer PC Case Mod is Amazing! [pics]

Having seen a number of case mod competitions over the years as well as all of the ones I have posted that I have just stumbled across, I am no stranger to amazing pc mods. However, I think this steampunk case mod might just be the greatest pc case mod I have ever seen!

A couple of years ago, I posted a spectacular steampunk desk and computer modthat I find to be one of the most impressive steampunk creations I have ever seen. Well, now we have a new king of steampunk computer case mods with this incredible one below that isn’t just a case mod but also a steampunk keyboard, monitor and more!

Reddit user CodyOdi built this amazing Steampunk pc mod which looks like the ultimate machine for playing Bioshock Infinite! I love how he went the extra mile and gave his keyboard, monitor and even speakers a steampunk overhaul. I officially give this guy the title of God of Steampunk!

For those curious what the case originally looked like before the steampunk mod, I have posted a picture of the original case below the finished project pictures.

Share this with any steampunk lovers, Bioshock Infinite fans and case modders you know! Like us on Facebook too!

Sony Vaio Notebook Modded Into a Steampunk Machine

Commissioned by Sony, designer John “Wilhelm” Dunn converted a Vaio F into a cool Steampunk machine. Named eCog Mercury, the machine mod is finished in birch plywood trim, with typewriter like retro key caps, and a sprinkling of copper and gauges. It also includes non-functional gauges and steel pipes that serve the purpose of being wires and drawer pulls.

Dunn is now selling the mod for laptops. You need to have a Sony Vaio F series to provide for the mod, and Dunn will make the other changes for $1250.
