I just joined up and i first wanted to introduce myself, i am a big computer geek from Fort Wayne Indiana, i go to college at ivy tech in the computer information technology course. 26 years old.
I have the casing to an Xbox 360 I want to turn into a computer, can anyone help me?
Without helping me too much so you are doing it for me so to speak but i am stuck...
I have picked out the motherboard which is a Gigabyte GA-M68MT-S2 and can be bought at ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/150812705464?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
And i am looking at the power supply but which one would you recommend for a small confined space.
Keep in mind this is not a Gaming Rig aside from a game of diablo or solitaire. I am doing this to advance my skills and nothing more!
I have a laptop dvd drive on my shelf that is sata format so i am good there, i also plan on buying a used hdd from ebay that is also from a laptop!
I am also doing this to have another test computer for experiments and stuff....
I would be able to figure out all of this myself if it was a normal sized case and i didn't have to use micro atx format but i have never worked with this kind of hardware before. I have a full atx system so no experience on my end.
Please keep any comments to yourself that may suggest i am wasting my time or it's stupid, i don't care and you just make yourself look really stupid when you do that.
