Hello, Howdy. I was wondering if any of you have any idea about the skinniest, slimist, 19" widescreen LCD monitor. I want to squeeze a 19"er into the lid of this case http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/pelican-flashlights_1920_1359942
Here are the dimensions of the case, I think I should be ok fitting all the stuff on the inside but I think i am gonna have some problems with the LCD monitor, I can go with a 17"er but what fun is that I want to squeeze a 19" in there, I figure I can just about get 19"es in there with about 1/2' to spare on the top and bottom and about 1" to spair from left to right. So it should just about fit. Any suggestions would be great! If you know about super slim monitors.
Thanks alot.
DIMENSIONS:
INSIDE: 18-15/16" x 14-7/16" x 7-3/4" (48.1 cm x 36.7 cm x 19.7 cm)
OUTSIDE: 20-11/16" x 17-3/16" x 8-9/16" (52.5 cm x 43.6 cm x 21.7 cm)
LID DEPTH: 1-13/16" (4.6 cm)
CASE DEPTH: 5-15/16" (15 cm)
PS Tim thats a pretty good idea, I think I can work on that. Also, I was reading about some copper coil motherboards, I dont know exactly how they work but they have little copper pipes running to the CPU. Again with $3,000+ of hardware in this little box i am very afraid to go with water cooling. If it was going to be stationary that would be cool but because I plan to treat this as a "Ultra portiable DeskLappy" I dont like the idea of that water slochin around in there.
If I cant get the 19" into this case if it proves to small then i'll go with this one http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/pelican-flashlights_1920_7489826
But again the lid depth is only 1-13/16" so I am gonna have to find one about 1" sure I am gonna have to gut it, has anyone ever gutted a LCD monitor before? Do you think I will be able to fit it in there flush?
Thanks alot.
DIMENSIONS:
INSIDE: 21-3/4" x 16-13/16" x 7-7/8" (55.2 cm x 42.7 cm x 20 cm)
OUTSIDE: 24-1/4" x 19-7/16" x 8-11/16" (61.6 cm x 49.4 cm x 22 cm)
LID DEPTH: 1-13/16" (4.6 cm)
CASE DEPTH: 6-1/16" (15.5 cm)
( BY THE WAY... This picture is exactly what I want the case to look like when opened ( minus the brosure) Completely black, so you cant see any of the componants. I was thinking of Black Plexi glass or something I dunno. )
Thanks for the ideas!!
