Great design!! But will the legs support the weight? ohmy.gif

By the picture it looks like the legs are only screwed with two bolts (right back leg), no extra washers or any other support?

now the fun (and tricky) stuff starts soon

Cool looking setup! I guess if you are going to dedicate a computer to a cab you may as well go for the best! that is one hell of a rig you have in there! great specs on that!

My pinball cab is the most powerful computer in the house and I have two other dedicated gaming PCs. You will enjoy the GTX460. That is the card I am using for my pinball cab.
Having a cabinet to play full screen pins is awesome! Check out my mini pin cab here on VPForums.
