I am pretty sure this seller watched the recent video the team did on the compact sleeper PC build.
 
 
The case looks to be in pretty nice shape for being an 8088 processor, and I'm tempted to get it, but I do not have access anymore to the nice shop tools at my school to do this up properly, with precise drilling and tapping for new ITX supports and modding the old PSU metal box to house what's in a modern SFF power supply with the outlet connector and a fan wired up. It's tempting though...

I would personally go to a junkyard or some other electronics disposal facility and look for something there. It'll likely be free if not extremely cheap and if you're gutting the thing anyway, why pay $100 for one?

Well... Can't say you need to be especially precise, take a look at the Toaster Project xD I have pretty limited power tools, but I still managed to mount an ITX board where it shouldn't have gone! and for the PSU, just use some of that double sided for tape, that's what I used for the SSD and PSU and it works great :)

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
