We have featured quite a few cool custom PCs here at Geeky Gadgets, and the latest one is the creation of Paul Bangdiwala. It is called the Bandi Scarab, and Paul wanted to give the PC a spider-like personality. From the looks of the photos, he has certainly achieved that.
The Bandi Scarab features an Asus AM3 motherboard, plus a dual-core AMD Phenom II 3GHz processor which has been overclocked to 3.4GHz. There is also 4GB of DDR3 RAM, a 60GB SSD as its primary drive, and a 250GB HDD as its secondary. On top of that, there is also a 550W OCZ Fatality PSU.
Design and Aesthetics
The design of the Bandi Scarab is truly unique and eye-catching. Paul Bangdiwala has managed to encapsulate the essence of a spider in the form of a PC. The case itself is intricately designed with multiple legs extending outwards, giving it a lifelike appearance. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the sleek black finish to the glowing LED lights that add an eerie ambiance, especially in low-light conditions. This custom PC is not just a piece of technology; it is a work of art.

Performance and Specifications
When it comes to performance, the Bandi Scarab does not disappoint. The overclocked AMD Phenom II processor ensures that the system runs smoothly, even when handling demanding tasks. The 4GB of DDR3 RAM is sufficient for most applications, although power users might consider upgrading to 8GB or more for enhanced performance. The combination of a 60GB SSD and a 250GB HDD provides a good balance between speed and storage capacity. The SSD ensures quick boot times and fast access to frequently used applications, while the HDD offers ample space for storing larger files.
The 550W OCZ Fatality PSU is more than capable of powering the system, ensuring stability and reliability. This is particularly important for a custom build like the Bandi Scarab, where power requirements can vary depending on the components used.
