Carputer part 3

Your system has quite a bit more effort and ingenuity in it than mine. Mine is just a dated ATX system in a cardboard box.

I would like to use a mobile Athlon XP cpu, I have a mobile 2500+ in this system and I can run it passively cooled at anything under 1.2ghz, running as low as 1.1v core.

oh, and just get a m2-atx power supply, its the cheapest at $80, and it will automatically shut down and start up your carputer. Really small too. I am just waiting for mine, I got it at http://www.digitalww.com

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
