Custom PC building is a hot market, with builders striving to create the most innovative and flashy looks with top performing hardware. One such PC build brings the popular game Minecraft to life with its case resembling a very detailed, and dangerous, block type. As there is only one, Minecraft fans will want to get this rare build for their inventory.
Reddit user DaKrazyKid is known on the site for showing off their RGB PC and keyboard builds. Recently, they shared a custom-built PC that looks exactly like a Minecraft magma block that has come to life. The build is shaped like a cube and incorporates details specific to the magma block including an RGB setting that glows just like the block does in the game. The magma block type can also be found where the magma cream is located in Minecraft’s Nether world, and is dangerous for players to step on because it causes fire damage. However, that is not the case with this PC as players and fans will want to get their hands on it.
The custom PC not only looks great, but was also built to run great. The full extent of the hardware is not specified, however DaKrazyKid noted the following heavy hitters: Asus Rog Strix 3080 Ti, 32GB of Corsair Vengeance, 3600MHz RAM, an Intel Core i9 11900k processor, and MSI MPG Z590 Carbon EK X motherboard. The hardware companies listed are reputable and heavily involved in the PC community, always releasing various PC amenities, like Corsair's new gaming chair. DaKrazyKid's company, SignalRGB, promotes its customizability of the RGB lights in all its builds, allowing for players to tailor their experience while gaming. So if players want the magma block to be rainbow-colored, they can do so.
The PC is sure to please fans as it also includes an Easter egg Minecraft creature called a Strider that lives in the Nether and can walk on lava. Fans have already shared their opinions in the comments of the Reddit post, stating their excitement and awe of the build, some stating that it looks like an IRL shader. However, some others have expressed concerns. Because of its large cubed shape, the airflow may not be optimal, as DeKrazyKid noted “It gets hotter than a normal pc for sure. It is a block after all.” Despite its impressive hardware, the build may be closer in nature to the magma block than what hardcore gamers would prefer.
Players are known to take existing structures from real life and create them in the game, such as an accurate Minecraft build of the Eiffel Tower, so it may be refreshing for fans to see a Minecraft block built in the real world. Minecraft encourages all forms of creativity with building and sharing builds, and this PC embodies exactly what the game stands for. The Minecraft PC will be given away to a winner as part of a giveaway that SignalRGB is known for.
Minecraft is available on Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
