About the replica, Cooler Master have a nice, almost cube shaped mini-ITX PC

Inside the machine I would suggest actual workstation-grade hardware (Xeon 
processor, ECC memory, maybe except graphics card - workstation grade graphics 
are too expensive for general public, and the size in the case is restrictive.)
