PC gaming modders love to stuff gaming PCs into things that aren’t gaming PCs. I love a build that hides all the PC parts in a desk for a sleek “invisible” setup. But can you hide one under your… ahem… posterior? One YouTuber managed to do just that, stuffing a full desktop gaming PC (or at least its parts) into an office chair.
Combined with a flex server power supply, some 3D printing, and a bunch of trial and error, the finished product is surprisingly sleek. A custom-printed housing hides all the guts, grants access to the I/O ports, and allows enough airflow to keep it from dying. I love the way the USB ports pop out in the spot where the chair can be fitted with a footrest.
With an AMD Ryzen 9 9800X3D CPU, a low-profile RTX 4060 graphics card, and 64GB of RAM, the end result is beefy in terms of actual gaming power. And while the chair looks a little thicker than a normal chair, I’d never suspect that there’s a chunky gaming PC hiding in there. It’s super-sleek with all the cables running through the base. And at the end of the video, Basically Homeless combines the whole thing with a head-mounted VR display for the ultimate seat setup.
Ridiculous? Yes. This thing seems to have taken weeks of effort for an aesthetic result that’s only good for, well, a YouTube video. But I have to respect the engineering and the sheer audacity of it.
