KFConsole gaming PC is real, absolutely insane and actually warms up your chicken

We’ve seen a lot of weird stuff in our long career in tech from outlandishly designed laptops to phones that look like plastic tacos but this offering is so bizarre that it reaches a new high as KFC and Cooler Master have teamed up to make the KFConsole, a bucket-shaped gaming PC that also ‘warms chicken’.

The KFConsole as it’s called isn’t a hoax and is apparently very real. Designed to ‘power your hunger’, the gaming console has a Chicken Chamber tray in the top section of the ‘bucket’ housing that uses the heat from your gaming hardware to keep your chicken hot and crispy while you’re wandering Night City or putting rounds downrange in Call of Duty Warzone..

It’s a bit of a catch 22 though as you typically want to have your hardware running cool but how this is accomplished from an engineering standpoint remains to be seen. It could possible use heat vented from the GPU but that also means possibly having the risk of crumbs or food getting into your components. It could also possibly just use a heating element to keep chicken warm like a toaster oven. There’s no confirmation at this point so it’s anyone’s guess how the Chicken Chamber works.

In keeping with its collaborative roots, the KFConsole is built like a matte black bucket of gaming goodness. Specifications are a bit thin at the moment but it will use an Intel Nuc 9 Extreme Compute Element in a customised Cooler Master NC100 chassis with a 9th Gen Intel processor and an NVIDIA RTX graphics card built by ASUS though which exact model hasn’t been stated as yet though they claim the KFConsole will support 4K@240fps gaming and will be VR ready. The console is also stated to pack two 1TB Seagate Barracuda 1TB SSD.

How much does the KFConsole Cost and Where To Buy It?

At this point in time, there is no price or launch date for this bizarre PC and it’s highly unlikely to even make it here but there is one thing we’d like answered – will there be ‘Original’ and ‘Spicy’ versions of it coming out later on! In the meantime you can check their original page to ogle over this admittedly bizarre gaming tower…bucket? We’re lost what to call it.
