https://ataristpc.game.blog/ So this started with just an idea of could it be possible to fit a full PC capable of modern gaming into an empty Atari ST case. Yes you read that right no working Atari ST's were harmed in the making of this project. I acquired the case completely empty but with a working keyboard. Parts list: ASUS Pro Gaming i170 Mini-ITX motherboard Intel i5 7600K @ 4.5GHZ Zalman CNPS2X ultra low profile CPU cooler EVGA NVidia GTX 1060 6GB Mini Superclocked 8 GB Corsair Vengance LPX DDR4 2400Mhz (can only utilise one slot due to the angle that the keyboard sits at - a 16GB Dimm could be used in this instance or low profile DDR4 non ECC which I've yet to find) Corsair 240GB M.2 hard drive Crucial BX500 480GB SDD hard drive HDPLEX 400W HiFi DC-ATX Power Supply Dell/Alienware DA330PM111 AC/DC Adapter SilverStone RC03 PCIe x16 riser ribbon cable 24 Pin motherboard extension cable (original HDPLEX cable isn't long enough) USB header cables which I've cut up to attach devices directly to the motherboard Tynemouth Software Atari ST Keyboard to USB controller 2x Thumb screws Mini USB speaker (fitted internally but currently not showing up unless unplugged and plugged back in again) Rust-Oleum Painters Choice Stone Grey spray paint Milliput Epoxy Putty Power sander Side snips for removing internal fixings Access to a 3D printer helps but not necessary I've probably sunk 50-60 hours into the project which includes the research time and test fitting trying multiple locations for the parts in the list. This video is just a quick test for the purposes of getting it out there to hopefully inspire others to do similar. I'm fairly sure at this point in time it's the only one capable of gaming in the world....maybe....I've found no information on the internet to say otherwise.
