ORIGIN PC Big O – The Ultimate Gaming System (or) Desktop, Console or a Beast?


Mate a premium gaming desktop with one of the big names in game consoles and you’ll have a Big O. The ORIGIN PC Big O offers the best of PC and console gaming as it integrated a liquid cooled XBOX 360 slim directly into a high performance desktop. The only downside is title wise, most XBOX 360 games are already available in PC versions, so the 360 is more of like just a bonus if you got tired of the keyboard. If ORIGIN manages to integrate a Sony PS3 – that’s another story.

Even without the XBOX 360 integration, the ORIGIN PC Big O is already a gaming system to be reckoned with. It offers total customization inside and out with only the best cases and components to choose from. Starting from the case, Big O is big – literally. It uses a fully customizable DD tower 21 Double Wide Case airbrushed by none other than KillerPaint. ORIGIN keeps your Big O cooled with an advanced liquid cooling system that helps maximize the performance of the processor, motherboard, video card and even the included Xbox 360 slim.

Inside is where the Big O really stands out; the starting configuration begins with an ASUS Rampage III Extreme and a professionally overclocked Intel Core i5 series processors combo with an 8GB Kingston HyperX Memory 1600Mhz for sides. To deliver the killer blow are two NVIDIA GTX 580 in SLI mode. If that’s not enough, there’s the benchmark and bank breaking CPU magazine configuration. It uses a custom DD tower 29 Case that houses an EVGA SR2 motherboard, dual Intel Xeon X5680 Overclocked to 4.3GHz, 12GB Corsair GT 2000Mhz and Quad SLI EVGA GTX 580 FTW – all cooled by ORIGIN High-Performance Dual CPU and GPU liquid cooling. Now go and weep.
