Origin PC ‘Big O’ PC/Xbox 360 Hybrid
Is this the world’s ultimate gaming PC? You could probably argue either way, but we’re pretty sure it’s the world’s ultimate entertainment machine. Pound for pound, you’ll be hard pressed to find a desktop tower with more fun-per-square-inch than on Origin PC’s Big O.
A high end creation, the Big O Desktop features a double-wide case, the Danger Den Tower 21, and has a starting price of $7,669, while the fully loaded version can cost as much as $17,000. The CPU, both GPUs, and the motherboard all come liquid-cooled even in the base model. As for upgrade, PC Origins offers gamers a variety of options from two six-core Intel Xeon X5680 CPUs, two 1,000 watt power supplies, and up to four graphics cards.
All of that is, of course, impressive, but the real innovation comes along the bottom edge of the system, where Origin has built in a liquid-cooled Xbox 360 Slim. You can run both, PC and the Xbox 360, at the same time, enabling you to game on your console / HDTV while someone else games on your computer LCD.
