A fridge compressor is not good enough to cool a system let alone the cpu. You need a compress then can handle cooling at least 125 wats of heat or so.
A A/c compressor from a window unit would be better.
My first real case mod.
I have this new mini fridge sitting around
Parts I have:
AMD X4 955 BE
Asus M5A88-M
ATI HD4850
8 GB 1600mhz corair vengeance
Corsiar H80 cooler
Question: Do I pull the plastic inside of fridge out?
How to mount mobo? What kind of frame?
I want to leave the fridge parts in working order, compressor etc.
Where to start?

Gigabyte Modified Bios
I am in NO way affiliated with Gigabyte.
If you use a BIOS I Modified, you do so at your own Risk and Assume Full Responsibilty !
Ok, Forget the compressor.
What I want is to mount 2 systems inside the fridge, one on either side.
I don't know anything about electricity and grounding etc... or potential current conflicts in a case with 2 PSUs.
I'm thinking of cannibalising 2 PC cases for mobo mounting plates and such things as Power switches.
Hmmmm.. seems doable
Ur using the fridge just as a case ?? or u will actually cool it as well with a compressor ???
Cooling wud become almost impossible cuz u need to drill holes to mount a zillion things in there...
Y on sides though ??? cant u just put the motherboard tray with everything on a top shelf with PSU occupying the lower compartment ??
This sounds like a really crazy idea... love it !
You should get one of those Coca Cola mini fridge they look amazing !
