This Gaming PC Looks Like a Toaster

Summary

Billet Labs created a toaster-like gaming PC with impressive specs in a compact 13-liter case. The Toaster PC is packed with an RTX 4090 GPU, i9 14900K CPU, dual 4TB SSDs, and a custom water-cooling system. Building the Toaster took 150 hours and $5,000+ in parts, offering high performance and style at a hefty price.

The custom PC builders at Billet Labs have created a gaming rig that looks suspiciously like a toaster. Putting together a computer that's both powerful and stylish can be challenging enough on its own, but some people aim higher. This gaming PC from Billet Labs is not just impressive in terms of its specs, but because it's compact enough to look like a kitchen gadget.

Themed builds aren't unusual among PC enthusiasts. Fans have put together officially branded Starfield PCs and Last of Us rigs within the past few months alone, but appliance-based themes are a little more unusual. Strange as it may be, though, it's hard to argue with the skill it takes to fit all the high-end components the Toaster boasts in just a 13-liter case.

Billet Labs revealed the appropriately named Toaster on Reddit after documenting the process of building it on YouTube. Despite its looks, the PC can't actually make toast. In fact, it may not even get hot enough to keep pizza warm, like Pizza Hut's PIZZAWRMR PS5 attachment does, thanks to a custom water-cooling system. What it can do is run games better than a lot of computers that don't look like toasters because, on top of being compact, it houses a 4090.

The Toaster's specs include:

RTX 4090 GPU i9 14900K CPU 32GB DDR5 RAM 4TB 12,400 Mbps M.2 SSD 4TB 7,200 Mbps M.2 SSD 1300W PSU

According to the Reddit thread, it took Billet Labs 150 hours of work and over $5,000 in parts to put the Toaster together. That's a lot of time and money, but it's not surprising, considering all that went into it. The RTX 4090 costs $1,899 on its own, and that's for the base model. Those two massive solid-state drives and the 14900K CPU are worth a pretty penny, too. Billet Labs said the lucky customer who received the PC got it for a good deal, thanks to it driving a lot of YouTube content, but something like this would likely fetch a hefty price tag outside promotional offers.

Keeping all those powerful components cool in such a small package is no easy task, and Billet Labs managed it by custom-building its water-cooling pipes. All that extra work would quickly run up the price for an ordinary bespoke PC build. Costs and effort aside, though, maintaining low temperatures despite such high performance and little room is an engineering marvel, even if it doesn't prepare toast on the side. Anyone hoping to have an actual PC-kitchen appliance combo should've grabbed the chicken-warming KFC gaming console when they had the chance.
