Mini-Fridge in PC
2006-03-19, 8:10 PM #1
Think it's possible? Just had a crazy thought about doing it, thought it would be cool. Wouldn't have to worry about cooling your PC either. Anyone know anyone who's done it? I know there ar esome ATX mod sites out there, but haven't found anything. Best part is my PC has a front panel that opens up for the drives, and that would be perfect for the opening. Any ideas? Sounds like something Spiral would whip up.
The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.

Wouldn't having a mini-fridge in your PC case increase the heat rather then diminish it?

But no, I haven't heard of it.

I think a better idea might be to build a PC into the side of a mini fridge. except I think it would be too cold to operate properly. It sounds too dangerous for me to try it.

Why not...

Just put your PC near a minifridge?

I mean, we all know you just want food nearby BECAUSE YOU'RE A LAZY NERD.

It's been done. Time and time again. Won't make your PC cooler, will make it much much hotter.

He's talking about doing the opposite, Yoshi.

He wants the fridge INSIDE the PC, which I have never seen, and can't find on google.

You mean the PC inside the fridge? I've seen mods where they have wood cases for the PC, then have a mini fridge inside there. I've never seen a PC inside the fridge, granted, but what he referred to is very popular.

If you're gonna put a fridge inside your PC, you might as well put a toaster in there too because it's gonna get real hot.

Now putting your PC inside a fridge, not a bad idea at all. Just don't spill any orange juice on it. :p

I'd like to see it, cause google's got nothing. There are plenty of PCs in fridge tests though.

Can you use a minifridge as a case?

Most of the time I see it on [H]ardOCP case mods. But to be honest, my initial search turned up nothing.
