A Chinese tech creator, Soda Baka, has intriguingly constructed a walk-in PC case large enough for a person to enter and experience the thermal dynamics of a desktop cooling system at human scale.
To mimic a PC’s thermal problem at room scale, Soda Baka ingeniously incorporated hot-coal sauna gear to push the internal temperature above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, or 38 degrees Celsius. The system uniquely features oversized fans and coolers, while a 12kW AC unit circulates an impressive 820 cubic meters per hour of air to manage temperatures.
Although the memory modules are merely props, they suggest an astounding simulated capacity of over 18,000GB each, leading to heavy speculation about their financial worth.
With cooling functionality activated, temperatures reportedly dropped to a comfortable 25ºC, allowing for an immersive experience.
This stunning structure represents not only an engineering feat but also an artistic vision, merging gaming culture with functional art. Soda Baka didn't just build a giant case; she created a personal space that allows her to both live and play games within this fantastical setup.

Key Facts
  • A Chinese creator has built a walk-in that turns desktop cooling into a human-scale spectacle.Digital Trends
  • The finished tower looks like an extreme version of the glass-heavy desktop cases that put every component on display.Digital Trends
  • To mimic a PC’s thermal problem at room scale, the creator uses hot-coal sauna gear and water to push the interior above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, or 38 degrees Celsius.Digital Trends
  • This PC has 18,000GB memory, and Bilibili creator Soda Baka has built a giant PC case large enough for a person to sit inside.1
  • The memory modules are only props, but the creator estimated their scaled capacity at more than 18,000GB each (imagine the cost).1
  • To simulate the heat output of a large computer, Soda Baka used a 12,000W charcoal sauna device.1
  • Cooling was handled by an air conditioner installed inside the structure, with airflow rated at 820 m³/h.1
  • The temperature reportedly dropped to around 25°C after cooling was enabled.1
  • This modder allows her to live and play games from within the case.Tech4Gamers
  • The modder also simulates the heat of a PC of that scale by building a hot-coal sauna inside, which sees the temperature quickly soar to 38 degrees Celsius.Tech4Gamers
  • A 12kW Midea 3rd Gen Pro AC unit was used to cool the entire PC room to comfortable levels since the oversized cooler was just a fake prop.Tech4Gamers
