If it had an hdmi out then it could be like a little portable console

any ideas on how to mount the other parts?
Will the graphics card be in there pretty well? I'm worried about it falling out if I mount the pcb vertically
How about Mounting the hdd and power supply?

As for the video card, someone had an example where the 'tail' of the back plate was bent 90 degrees then screwed into the mounting board.
I commonly see harddrives mounted via small L-brackets.

I personally use these little plastic mounting bases and zip ties to mount everything. If I am trying to mount something that I cant screw those little bases in and I need to to make it work, like I was trying to use them to mount a power supply to the wall, I will just gorilla glu them on using a clap over night.
