    Question Do these specs look good?

    ASUS P4S8X-MX Socket 478 SIS 661GX Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

    Intel Celeron D 310 2.13GHz 533MHz 256K 478pin CPU, Retail

    OEM PC-3200 PC400 1GB DDR 128X4/MODULE 184-PIN DIMM

    Ever Case E1290B-L24 Black/Silver Computer Case - Retail

    Ive been building computers for years so im slightly opposed to the mini-itx boards unless someone can give me some pretty convincing reasons why they would be better in this type of application.

    As much as i can figure with some fans and a few add on items like usb blue tooth and a gps receiver i should be able to get rockin and rollin on the road, any suggestions?

    How do you intend to power the PC in the car?
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?

    After looking a bit more i figured i could throw a car battery in series with an inverter to power the computer and keep the voltage up during crank.

    does it look like a respectable configuration?

    i figure if i use an inverter with a tank circuit ill have limitless ability to add extra peripherals to the setup.

    im also looking at using a motorized in dash touch screen 7" lcd

    i figure im going to total around 500 bucks for the main peices of the project.
