Alienware will get bricked with customized Lego gaming PC

If the (dangle on, let me rely) 16 totally different Lego units in my workplace alone are any indication, then PC avid gamers and Lego followers have a giant overlap in the course of their Venn diagram. Alienware is aware of this, and has launched an official, cute set that allows you to recreate an Space 51 gaming desktop in miniature.

Based on the promotional web page, the set is made from genuine Lego bricks. I assume the corporate is sourcing them wholesale, for the reason that packaging doesn’t have any Lego logos on the field. It’s 5.3 inches (13.2 centimeters) lengthy and incorporates 318 bricks.

But it surely’s a reasonably cool little package, replicating the outside options of the case and a properly detailed rear panel, with a clear window displaying off the motherboard, CPU, GPU, and even some tiny spherical items that stand in for cooling followers. There are even some piping parts that exhibit liquid cooler strains going to the “radiator.”

In order for you one, you’ll want to interact in a bit band loyalty. The Dell subsidiary isn’t promoting the package by itself, as a substitute exchanging it for 3500 Alienware Reward Factors (ARP). You possibly can earn ARP by putting in the Alienware Area app and competing in numerous challenges and group actions. It doesn’t look enjoyable, frankly, and I’d fairly simply ship Dell $30 for a teeny-tiny gaming desktop package.

Alternately, in case you’ve bought a shoebox stuffed with spare Lego elements like I do, you would simply throw collectively your individual. There are many examples to select from on the market.
