First off, this is a great place. I've been reading various posts and really like the atmosphere. Aero's Guide to Modding pt1 is a fun read too.
I was curious how most people go about mounting a motherboard in their mods. I've seen plenty of custom jobs and articles, but nothing really goes into how they mount things. If it's odd, they mention bending some aluminum or something, but not too much is said even then.
Do you like to use trays? Do you like to just mount the sucker to the side of the case? How much clearance do you try to place between the mobo and the case? Do you just use the little spacers? Or do you try to rig it higher? Does one take into account grounding? Is it necessary to take grounding into account? How does this affect metal cases vs other materials?
I have similar questions about PSUs too. Those above. Also, I know (not)grounding is important, but how can you check without frying something by accident? What do you take into account?
Basicly: If you have a metal box. And you want to put a computer into it. Is there anything that you pay particular attention to when you are mounting the components?
Thanks for your consideration. I've been all over the place trying to find answers in reviews/articles. I'm as giddy as this guy, , when i think about these things.
