hah, nice one!

I've often thought it would be good to make a wall-mounted test-bed style computer, but i've never seen it implamented before.

10/10 for creativity.

All you need to do now is spray the wooden board, and the drive bay black, and tidy the cables a little.

Good job :)
 
Thanks!
I've just done it, gonna add something there and there soon :)
 
nice job but you might get higher temps cause of no airflow IMO... i'm probally wrong
9/10
 
ha cool and if it ever heats up you could just point a box fan at it
 
Actually, I threw out 2x12cm and 2x8(?)cm fans out that were working with my old case. Temperature of CPU lowered very little, GPU core temps got higher 3-4 Celsius (thats is probably because most airflow in old case was directed to VGA card), but that didn't make much difference after all.

lol bigger is better 1 of these would drop those temps http://www.aoc.gov/cvc/photos/images/10-17-05BigFan_lg.jpg

A 9 almost a 10, I love it off the wall. Cable managemt and it would be perfect. Also maybe a good idea to paint your back plate.
