See the customizable CPU built from LEGO 

There are many, many uses for LEGO these days so it comes as no surprise that even computers can be built out of them. Total Geekdom's Mike Schropp has managed to built his first saleable computer system that's compact and customizable. At 19.05 x 19.05 x 13.97cm, it's small enough yet still manages to house a motherboard inside. The base system comes equipped with an Intel i3-4360 dual-core processor, 8GB of memory, 120GB SSD, and Intel HD4600 CPU. That model's price starts at US$999. You can check out the full specs and the varying designs over here at Total Geekdom.
