Well, the designers at Origin PC have, and today announced the introduction of The Big O; a high-power gaming PC that features a built-in Xbox 360. Each PC comes with a built-in Xbox 360 'Slim', which can be played while the PC is running other tasks and software, and supports all of the same connections and features of a full console. While the built-in Xbox 360 is certainly the biggest selling point of The Big O, it is actually one of the fastest gaming rigs available. The entry level version of the system features an overclocked 4.0GHz Intel Core i7 930 processor, a liquid cooled Rampage III Extreme motherboard, dual NVIDIA GTX 480 GPUs, 6GBs of memory, dual 50GB SSD drives, a 2TB hard drive, Creative Fatal1ty sound card, and built-in Blu-ray burner. Sounds expensive? It is; Origin has priced the base configuration at $7,669. If that wasn't enough to break your bank, The Big O is also offered in the configuration used by CPU Magazine, which features dual Intel Xeon X5680 processors overclocked to 4.3GHz, an EVGA SR2 motherboard, liquid cooling, quad SLI EVGA GTX 480 GPUs, 12GBs of memory, four 50GB SSD drives, two 2TB hard drives, a built-in Blu-ray burner, and a built-in 8 channel HD audio sound card, at a price of $16,999. Have the cash to shell out for Origin's gaming powerhouse? The company is now taking custom orders for The Big O starting today via their official website. http://gear.ign.com/articles/111/1118794p1.html http://originpc.com/thebigo-features.asp talk about over kill well they do have pretty legit water cooling and pretty customizable. Quad 480s, Xenon processors. Water Cooled Xbox slim. Shits insane. Edited September 8, 2010 by b0red Link to comment

Or do you use a second monitor to play 360. Or does it emulate a smaller monitor connection inside a connection? I just don't really understand how it works. Link to comment
