This is a graphics card that won't fit in your case or run Crysis.
Some people like their graphics cards; others love them; and still other people live for them. Xiaosheng Li loves his GTX 690 graphics card so much that he built one out of Legos. Yes, Legos, the Danish-made construction toy.
To build it, Xiaosheng used 11,396 Lego bricks, with the end result being a six foot long, two foot wide behemoth. The project took him three months as well as 10,000¥, equating to about $1640. To design the card, Xiaosheng used the LEGO Digital Designer software.
The graphics card might not run Crysis, though it does have a working fan!
For more details on the project, read his forum post at the TechPowerUp forums.

As for iknowhowtofixit's comment, if you are bored of Lego in 15 minutes then that is down to you and your lack of creative thinking, not Lego itself.
Lego has been around for almost 65 years (1949) and has inspired generation after generation. Lego took the 'creative construction' crown from Mechano and nothing has been able to compete since.
Now grow up, stop complaining and go play with some Lego.
