CarPC Update

[archemedes]

why are you posting and not working?

[meissen]

because at the moment, I'm getting high off the fumes filler and epoxy.

[meissen]

Molding it in...

[meissen]

Getting there! Mounting the motherboard, than it's just a matter of making some sides to hide the board, and install (minus a power supply.... )

[archemedes]

and paint

[meissen]

i was thinking about not painting it, what do you think, Steve? I think it'd look really good...

[archemedes]

has that ghetto feel to it

Please don't tell me ur gonna use that huge power supply.... If u look around you can find really small ones for like Micro-atx cases and shit.

I believe if I'm not correct he is still waiting for the power supply and that one you see in the picture is from random crap laying around in his basement/garage area. Also Brian if you don't paint that bezel I'll beat you myself.

Haha yeah, Phil gets the no-prize award. That's just a standard ATX power supply I had sitting around from an old computer (You'd be surprised how much computer parts we have down here, I have three towers sitting down here right now, not including my desktop or carPC, my dad's computer upstairs, or his personal computer at his office...) The powersupply that I'm waiting on might be about the same size as a standard ATX (I'm not sure what size it really is...) but it not only does standard powersupply, it's 12v in and also has regulation and DC-DC power and all these other goodies... it's quite literally designed for the carPC crowd, to protect the motherboard against spikes during engine cranking and stuff like that.

Haha yeah, Phil gets the no-prize award.

I'd like to thank the academy, my manager, my family, and all the little people that made me what I am today.
