Some people build PCs because they need a machine. Others do it because they genuinely enjoy tinkering. And then you have Simone Marino of Quantum Labs, who treats computer building almost like a form of storytelling. His work doesn’t simply follow themes; it absorbs them, bends them, and turns them into machines that feel alive in their own way.
Simone has been at this for more than a decade, and it shows. His builds carry a mix of precision and personality that’s hard to fake. They are bold without shouting, clean without being sterile, and usually full of small decisions that make you stop and think, “Ah, that was intentional.”
How It Began: Curiosity First, Everything Else Later
Simone didn’t start with a master plan. He wanted PCs that reflected the things he enjoyed — games, movies, iconic characters. One small mod turned into another one, and before long he realized the creative part of it was what he enjoyed the most. You can almost trace his growth by looking at each project: ideas getting bigger, techniques more refined, and a confidence that slowly slips into the details.
What stands out now is how balanced his work feels. Even when the concept is wild, the execution stays grounded. There’s control in the way he assembles his builds, a kind of calm underneath the color and shapes.
A Style Formed Through Materials, Not Just Paint
A lot of modders rely heavily on paint or lighting. Simone leans far more on materials — acrylic, aluminum, custom 3D prints, and an occasional experiment with something unexpected like leather or marble. It gives his builds weight, texture, and a sense of presence.
You don’t just look at a Quantum Labs build; you feel like you could reach out and understand it through touch alone. It’s part engineering, part design, and part instinct.
The Gundam Build: Built Like It Belongs in a Hangar
The Gundam build is probably the clearest example of how Simone works. It has the layered armor, the bold colors, and that unmistakable mechanical personality. But what makes it special is how intentional everything feels — the angles, the vents, even how the cables run inside. Nothing looks forced.
Hardware Behind the Gundam Build
- Intel Ultra 9 285K
- ASUS Z890-A Gaming WiFi
- ASUS Ryujin III 360 ARGB
- Kingston Fury Renegade 96GB 8400 MHz
- Kingston Fury Renegade 4TB
- Palit GeForce RTX 5070 GamingPro
- Cougar Cratus
- Seasonic PRIME TX-1600 (ATX 3.0)
- Seasonic MagFlow fans
- Reaper Cable custom set
It’s the kind of system that can sit at the center of a room and still hold its own technically.
The Deadpool & Wolverine Build: Color, Attitude, and a Bit of Chaos
(In a Good Way)
If the Gundam build feels methodical, the Deadpool & Wolverine build has more attitude. The mix of red, yellow, and black jumps out immediately, but the execution stays clean. There’s a little humor in the theme, sure, but the layout, cooling, and structure keep it from becoming a novelty piece.
Hardware Behind the D&W Build
- AMD Ryzen 7 9700X
- ASUS TUF B650-PLUS WiFi
- Patriot Viper RAM
- Palit GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super
- Raijintek Paean Premium
- Seasonic PRIME PX-1600 (ATX 3.0)
- Reaper Cable custom set
It’s fun, but it still works like a proper high-end system.
Why Seasonic Keeps Showing Up in Simone’s Projects
Ask Simone about Seasonic and he’ll give you a straightforward answer: he trusts them. After years of building PCs with almost every configuration you can imagine, he hasn’t had a single project run into trouble because of a Seasonic PSU. That kind of reliability becomes part of the workflow — you stop worrying about power and focus on design.
The PRIME series especially matches his mindset: engineered carefully, stable, and built in a way that aligns with the level of detail he puts into his own systems.
Looking Ahead: Bigger Ideas, More Risks, and Sharing What He Learns
Simone doesn’t view this as a closed loop. He talks about wanting to build something that feels more like modern art than a traditional PC — something that makes people stop, look, and maybe even forget they’re looking at computer hardware. At the same time, he spends a lot of effort sharing the process with his audience, hoping newer builders pick up ideas, confidence, and maybe a bit of courage to try something unusual.
Quantum Labs feels like it’s still growing, still experimenting, and still figuring out what’s possible. And that’s probably why Simone’s work resonates: it carries the energy of someone who hasn’t reached his limits yet.
