Posted on: Mar 5, 2008
I put the computers in the closet,made a horizontal base out of plexiglass(I
got from dumpster diving , in fact all the desk wood is recyled stuff)wires go through wall.

Yes all wires are loose,If I zip up all the wires I'll have to cut them every time I change something(I'm the kind of guy who can't leave well enough alone). I made this for two reasons to get rid of the fan noise and so I can have very easy access to all components
The size is 28"Long X 48" High X 12" Wide,it holds 2 motherboards, 6 HDDs, 3 power supplies (1 just powers the fans), 6 fans, a modem, and a router.With this all open and MB's in horiz. the heat pipes I have cooling are much more efficient:
CPU's range between 79*F to 98*F full load
Video Cards= 92*F to 110*F full load
NorthBridge= 100*F to 121*F

haha that setup is awesome man!
Yeah cable management could be needed(for airflow) but esthetically, no one sees it so who cares?
Nice work setting all that up!
Awesome and I understand about cutting cable ties when you go in and move something. That gets to be a pain in it's own right. Plus when you clip that cable tie that one little piece goes flying and you don't know where it went. lol Happy Modding to ya.
