So, this is a weird one... but pretty cool too.

So, it's a PC you practically build and upgrade yourself and requires absolutely no technical know-how at all. Changing any hardware isn't hard to anyone who is even slightly tech savvy but can feel like a daunting task to those who aren't.
I think this is a really neat, innovative idea. I struggle to think this will have much market impact, no doubt like most Razer products it'll price itself out of many homes to begin with, but imagine a console with this kind of technology, where you could slot in more powerful parts and more. A problem with consoles is the fact they stay the same for the entire generation, something a device like this wouldn't have issues with. The concept is amazingly fun and very cool, and something many people have asked for, but I guess we'll see if this would be a success.
I mean, I'd personally argue that the concept and idea of this is more exciting than the actual product!
What do you think?
Project Christine is basically a very cool-looking rack into which gamers can slot any combination of modules including GPU, CPU, memory, and more, which will automatically sync. These modules have built-in liquid cooling and noise cancellation and require no cables. The modules could potentially be sold by Razer or third parties, but the company hasn't planned that far. The computer can also run multiple operating systems.
If gamers respond well, Razer will start working on bringing Project Christine to market. Min-Liang has no idea when that might be. But based on Razer's past, we could be looking at a product release before too long.
