Ben Heck builds his very own Xbox 360 laptop! He gives you 5 full webpages of his detailed step by step process with tons of photos. This is not Ben’s first portable console project. Heck has built every portable gaming console you could imagine from an Atari to an N64 and many more. It does not appear to be able to run on a battery, but that does not take away how cool this would be to own. And speaking of “cool”, Ben built a custom water-cooled radiator system keeping this stove top, ice cold. I can’t imagine how much he could get for this on eBay, but I have a feeling it’s not for sale.

A friend of mine asked back in May “Can you build an Xbox 360 laptop?” And I responded “Sure, can you pay for it?” He agreed, and thus I set forth on what was surely to be my most complex and insanely ridiculous videogame project yet.

Uses a 17″ wide (diagonal) 1280×720 progressive-scan LCD VGA monitor (for HD-level resolutions). Water-cooled with custom-built radiator. Built-in keyboard and Wi-Fi. USB hub allows original number of 3 USB ports for user. Uses single customized “expanded” power supply brick for both screen and Xbox 360. 16.75″ x 10.75″ x 2.8″ Weight: 14 pounds (with water loaded)

Shoutout to XBLife.com for the heads up!
