Six months in the making and more than a few nicks and cuts, all to bring to life a bit of madness.
Madness is what madness does and what I did, I did not in the name of the Doctor. I did it because a simple Imgur album someone posted long ago gave me an idea: to build a Steam Machine inside the shell of a console. The XBox 360 turned out to be the perfect donor. Small, with a reasonably sized interior it would had to have all components inside, power supply included. And so it was.
No big rambling bits this time, the video up there has most of everything. I will just leave you with the pictures and benchmark results.

That’s a really cool build, now it has to join the Chariquisition!
What settings were the game benchmarks done on, ie resolution/quality?
@N_MAG
Unless the preset has a specific resolution (like the Unigine tests) everything was run at 1080p. Presets used are labelled in the graphs.
