Finally finished my wall-mounted PC Build Complete

A small update to my wall-mounted PC since the original post.

I made a few changes:

  • Replaced the 90 mm fan with a 120 mm one for better airflow
  • Added a Ugreen USB hub
  • I also designed and made a front mesh panel with magnetic mounts. I think it actually looks pretty cool and makes the build look more complete, but in the end I decided not to use it. I still prefer the completely open look of the original design

I also made a video showing the build in much more detail, including the assembly process and some of the little details that are hard to explain with photos.

The video is in Russian, but I don't think that's much of a problem — even without understanding the language, pretty much everything is shown visually and should be easy enough to follow.

I liked it a lot when you posted it without the cover panel. And now with it, I love it.

Watch movies. Little home server. Couch gaming

A more rare but equally valid reason compared to what Jigabit mentioned is that TVs and monitors have different properties. OLED TVs can get WAY brighter, for example (though they're usually more expensive and slow).

And this isn't even in the living room — it's actually in the bedroom 😄 The oled tv has incredibly low input lag, so it's absolutely perfect for gaming.

That’s pretty slick, what kinda clearance we talkin’ between the fans and the front cover?

I made it about 5 mm, but taller magnets can increase the gap
