You get a different kind of experience working on your own car. Its a great experience for people who love their cars.

Some one requested for the pics of the motherboard, here are the pics

I have lots of free space in the cabinet to ad things in future, Maybe a graphic card to have better gaming experience

^^ Thanks for the pic, its a Full sized Cabinet
Atom Board you have will not take a PCI-E graphics card.

Dust on your fan blades show they are working hard, it would be better if you cover the open slots and area with something which can let pass little air, like netted cloth used on home speakers would be helpful.

Very well done project. A real good inspiration. I think even i am going to start working towards making a car-pc when i get time. Only thing that was holding me back till now was such a perfect guide. Neatly explained.

I'm working on the net thing, I'm a little busy with college fest and other personal work so hopefully by next week I'll do the job.PCI graphic cards do work with my ATOM board. I Placed my desktop's graphic card in it and it was all perfect but because of time constrain i couldn't test it. I'll do it next week as soon as I get free. I'll keep you guys updated.

Any time mate, and do think over the cabinet thing, i dint have time and patience so got a cainet from mercury, You can built your own cabinet at a very cheaper price.
