Incredible! Turning Nintendo GameCube into a PC is true!

The Nintendo GameCube is a classic home console of the sixth generation.

Known for their compact design, this console is twenty years old this year, and one user of the console would point out it can be a handy PC.

He shared a photo of its new gaming rig, which contains an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card, 16GB HyperX DDR4 RAM, and a 2TB Samsung 860 QVO SSD.

Due to the size of the GameCube, to avoid motherboard and processor problems he matched it by purchasing an Asus PN50 Mini PC and removing the computer’s motherboard, which also contained a Ryzen 5 4500U processor.

He also painted the case, changing the exterior color from jet black to peach.

He shared his assembly steps on the internet, and reading his notes proves that building a PC wasn’t easy as he had to make several modifications to the console, including swapping out the original shell and making a custom mount for the motherboard with the graphics card placed on top.

The disc drive opens, and makes air flow so that the PC can circulate air properly.

Despite the limited space for the parts, Cityle noted that the computer had no issues with overheating computers – the GPU and CPU hit around 80°C and 60°C when running benchmark tests on Time Spy.

This isn’t the only impressive PC Cityle build built using old game consoles – it also builds a gaming PC with the Dreamcast as the shell.

Of course this is a very unique thing if you want to assemble a PC with a beautiful model you have.
