PC gaming gear based on licensed properties isn’t anything new. In fact, most of it isn’t that notable — I’m more interested in original art adorning PC parts, say, some anime-inspired graphics cards or cat-themed motherboards. But I have to tip my plastic cowboy hat to MSI, which went absolutely nuts on this PC themed after Pixar’s Toy Story.
The Z890 motherboard gets Woody’s cowboy theme. The graphics card (an RTX 5070, if you’re wondering) takes Buzz Lightyear’s green-on-white color scheme. The all-in-one CPU cooler is based on the three-eyed squeaky aliens. The power supply is painted purple to match Emperor Zerg. Even the transparent ATX case is painted to match the claaaaaaw grabber game, wherein the aliens live. It’s got a little joystick, it’s adorable.

The whole thing is a clashing mishmash of different colors and aesthetics…which I suppose matches the controlled chaos of Andy’s room from the movies. Oh, and I should mention that technically this isn’t a full gaming PC — in addition to the five parts listed above, you’ll need to provide your own Intel CPU, RAM, storage, and an operating system. Which makes the 80,000 Taiwanese dollar price (about $2700 USD) a little harder to swallow. The listing was spotted by VideoCardz.
The matched set is limited to just 500 bundled units, and no, you can’t buy just individual pieces. But you’re going to have a hard time buying this thing outside of Taiwan, anyway — it’s exclusive to the GQ shop in that territory.
