Re: NES PC
Neato, ya it might be able to save some space, but from the looks of it he/she cut out the bottom "T" area. Problem with have the switches the way they are is because the height at which they are mounted. Unless you can find a small form factor mobo. so your saying that the original mobo vs this i'...

Re: NES PC
Mobo: The ION board should be good enough to be used as an HD media player. The only thing it'll struggle with is newer games. If you really want a power house, you should be able to keep the 9300 cool. I would mount the fan on the side of the heatsink and have the exhaust air ducted to outside the...

Re: NES PC
all that dual channel usually means, is that you get a kit of two modules of memory. Go ahead and get the cheapest 4GB kit if you want to put the full 4GB in it. If you go with a core 2 duo or anything fancy like that, you will also have more space constraints, because of the requirement for a larg...

Re: NES PC
Ok, you've probably seen my worklog of my NES-PC. Here are some problems you might face and some solutions. When wanting to attach a DVD drive in the cartridge slot that will still cut down on space you have available inside for your mobo and hard drive. To clear up space you will have to cut out t...

Re: NES PC

Re: NES PC
I agree - the more stock it looks, the better. 1. You don't need to cut the T out of the bottom. Gives you a bit more space, but not necessary. 2. DVD drive at cartridge slot is pretty simple. 3.
