Build of the week: Super Gaming (a Superman logo with a cape)

Features
By James Davenport published 28 March 2016

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.

Every Monday, Build of the week highlights a unique rig from the web's most dedicated PC building communities.

Last week, we featured a chunky Batman head, so it’s only right that Superman gets a shot this time around. Sure, he’s basically invincible, he can fly, he has x-ray vision, but fairness supersedes all super powers (or lack thereof), especially when it comes to custom case mods.

This Superman logo build comes from BaluC and Soccer of Black-Mod.com. What really stands out to me about the project is that the logo isn’t just a simple paint by numbers recreation. It actually employs a few meshes to emulate the texture of Superman’s more recent suit iterations.

Even if the components aren’t exactly super, this computer has a damn cape and is balanced by a fist-imprinted pedestal. I like to imagine arms sprouting from its center before it leaps into the sky. A perfect world, where we’re policed by a sentient superhero PC who flies around and punches bad games, imprisoning them in a Microsoft Surface, which is then sent spinning through space.

Please send your fanfic manuscripts to james@pcgamer.com.

This Superman logo build comes from BaluC and Soccer of Black-Mod.com. What really stands out to me about the project is that the logo isn’t just a simple paint by numbers recreation. It actually employs a few meshes to emulate the texture of Superman’s more recent suit iterations.

Even if the components aren’t exactly super, this computer has a damn cape and is balanced by a fist-imprinted pedestal. I like to imagine arms sprouting from its center before it leaps into the sky. A perfect world, where we’re policed by a sentient superhero PC who flies around and punches bad games, imprisoning them in a Microsoft Surface, which is then sent spinning through space.

Every Monday, Build of the week highlights a unique rig from the web's most dedicated PC building communities.

Last week, we featured a chunky Batman head, so it’s only right that Superman gets a shot this time around. Sure, he’s basically invincible, he can fly, he has x-ray vision, but fairness supersedes all super powers (or lack thereof), especially when it comes to custom case mods.
