YouTuber transforms Xbox Series X into a gaming PC with 3D printed components, low-profile RTX 5060, and NUC 12 Extreme

YouTuber PhaseTech has transformed an Xbox Series X into a gaming PC using 3D printed components and an Intel NUC 12 Extreme PCIe compute card with a Core i7-12700, 32GB of DDR4, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. The build also includes a low-profile Gigabyte RTX 5060 graphics card and a 600W Flex ATX power supply, allowing for a compact configuration within the Xbox chassis. Various 3D printed brackets were used to mount the components, including the compute card, graphics card, power supply, and cooling fan, with the DVD-ROM drive salvaged from the original Xbox Series X internals. The successful project showcases the potential of small-form-factor builds and offers a glimpse into the future capabilities of Microsoft's upcoming Xbox consoles.
