ceiling-mounted PC

[Jonny24]

Dear Community,
i though about mounting my PC in this little corner

I was thinking about a metal backplate, m cut out of a old case, mounted 2-3 cm away from the ceiling, where i would but my mainboard on. One of my questions is: do i have to put my graphics card away from the mainboard and fix it also on the backplate?

whats about the cpu cooler is the mainboard stable enough to hold it. i actually own this cooler

Cooling is my 2. point is air cooling enough and how to position the fans or do i have to go with water-cooling.

as a dust protector i would take a plexiglas plate with cutouts for fans. all the cables would run up behind my curtains.

So what do u think: is it doable or should i forget it really fast.

Help and advices wanted.

I think it's feasable, inspire yourself from the many wall mounted pc's out there!

so it basically just a rack mount pc but bolted to the ceiling

I'm guessing you would need a lot of USB extenders for peripherals and how would you even plug in your USB things? a ladder?

I don't know how significant that is but... where would the heat go? (if not streight through the wall with a radiator outside)

"From what?"

"My desktop fell on my head!"

Seriously though! Do not sit directly under it OP
