PC Construction
Hi All,
As another minor update, I've started building the CarPC using what components I already have and the usual spare PC bits and pieces we've all got lying around.
I must admit I've already encountered some challenges that have required resolution from this forum, google and my general trial and error skills. The PC is already familiar with being "mobile" as I've taken it upstairs, downstairs, and even over to my father's house to track down issues. Good fun - NOT - but we live and learn I guess. Still juggling a couple of quirky motherboard issues (Via Epia EN12000EG), but I'm hopeful that they can all be sorted. We'll see I guess.
I've got the traditional test setup on the workbench, and one of my next tasks is to Wire up my OPUS PSU via the ATX power supply on my workbench. Never attempted that kind of thing before, so should be fun. No doubt the instructions will come in handy.
Also, I have been lurking in the classifieds section for a Xenarc 700TSV (which is probably my screen of choice), but I'm also reading these threads on sunlight and transflective screens, and they've really got me thinking. Bloody expensive sport this !!
Cheers,
Long.1
