PC case modders are simply creative, they could easily turn almost anything into a PC case. Now, a retro gadget, a a 1951 Zenith H664 Cobra-matic phonograph has been turned into a fully functional PC.
Stuffed in this retro PC case are an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, an XFX GeForce 7950GT graphics card, 2GB of RAM, and a 250GB hard drive. This case mod was built by Alvin Barber, and the PC was intended as a gaming, performance PC but kept with low noise.
The plan? This is a gaming, performance PC, not too cutting edge as I want to keep it as quiet as possible. I considered water cooling but am going to stick with air. Although I do have a wicked brass and copper fire extinguisher or a copper toilet tank float that would work as cool reservoir. So yeah, like Retromod, brass and copper will play a part as will more “tube-punk”accents.
