 I've decided to make a computer in a cable box. A "adelphia" One. It says motorrola on the front and it has perfect size to make one. Pictures coming tomarrow. IF you could recomend a Motherboard it would be greatly apreciated.

Re: I've decided to make a computer in a cable box. Home theater sounds nice. Didn't even think about that. Any suggestions for a motherboard? I think it has to have a Micro atx or lower.
Here is a pic of the cable box, I didnt take the pic either.

Re: I've decided to make a computer in a cable box. Yeah, an atom system would fit. Atom mobos would come with CPU and heatsink already on it, but it will be hard to make hard drive bays and DVD drive bays as well as sort everything out :/

Re: I've decided to make a computer in a cable box. Thanks. The drives will not be a problem. Just the psu might be a bit harder.

Re: I've decided to make a computer in a cable box. I am going to be able to get a micro atx mobo for the box. Some of them are the perfect size. I cant decide wether i should get the motherboard first or the rotary tool. Help please? lol
