Mini Fridge case.... need help.

[Quinetiam]

My first real case mod.

I have this new mini fridge sitting around

Parts I have:

AMD X4 955 BE
Asus M5A88-M
ATI HD4850
8 GB 1600mhz corair vengeance
Corsiar H80 cooler

Question: Do I pull the plastic inside of fridge out?

How to mount mobo? What kind of frame?

I want to leave the fridge parts in working order, compressor etc.

Where to start?

Re: Mini Fridge case.... need help.

A fridge compressor is not good enough to cool a system let alone the cpu. You need a compress then can handle cooling at least 125 wats of heat or so.

A A/c compressor from a window unit would be better.

Ok, Forget the compressor.

What I want is to mount 2 systems inside the fridge, one on either side.

I don't know anything about electricity and grounding etc... or potential current conflicts in a case with 2 PSUs.

I'm thinking of cannibalising 2 PC cases for mobo mounting plates and such things as Power switches.

Hmmmm.. seems doable

Ur using the fridge just as a case ?? or u will actually cool it as well with a compressor ???
Cooling wud become almost impossible cuz u need to drill holes to mount a zillion things in there...

Y on sides though ??? cant u just put the motherboard tray with everything on a top shelf with PSU occupying the lower compartment ??
