You can officially build a gaming PC with a Lego PC Case, and this redditor proved it by building three instead of one. This brave PC builder was able to fit the AMD Ryzen Gaming PC into a standalone case, but also put together two old CRT-style monitor enclosures with a touchscreen display and space for a Mini-ITX gaming PC.

LEGO is a very versatile building material and I’ve seen it pop up from time to time on many PC build pieces, including this amazing LEGO Fortnite Gaming PC. I’ve used it on a small scale for some Raspberry PI cases, but I have to admit that I’m intrigued to design larger cases like this myself. The only concern is thermal. Because if you need specs to match our best gaming PC guide rigs, you’ll probably be a toast inside.

Reddit user okdebate6649 shared the creation in a series of Reddit posts. The first is this Reddit Post Commodore 64-inspired gaming PC, which incorporates a portable 2K monitor using a CRT-style design. According to Redditor, there is space inside for the Mini-ITX motherboard and graphics card.

I also built a second retro style monitor case with Lego and featured it along with a Commodore style machine in this post. This new build uses a brighter white brick tint compared to the yellow-style Commodore case, which incorporates the same 2K touchscreen LCD display with the original design.

However, the main PC build is within this all-white case to complement the CRT-style screen posted here, with the Commodore-themed build screen acting as the second monitor. Redditor is light on spec details, but mentions it features the AMD Ryzen 5 5600G, a six-core Zen 3 CPU with a clock speed of 3.5GHz. There is no dedicated graphics card. Instead, Redditor relies on the integrated Radeon Vega 7 GPU included in the processor.

The build appears to have a full-size ATX power supply, along with some case fans to run your PC cool. The attention to detail is impressive, and I especially like the downward slope of the case, going from the center to the bottom, with the LEGO brick giving it a very clean line. The build also includes a custom stand with a keyboard, but the monitor appears in deleted state in some shots.

This Redditor proves what you can build with Lego if you are a gamer looking for an outstanding PC build. I was able to take out the old Lego bricks and see what could be created, but it may take some attempts to get the design to this standard.
