As always - looks great!
Not a big Kodi fan, used it for a while when I was looking for a substitute for Windows HTPC. I'm using Plex for ease of use.

just looking at your power supply solution there....
you know these exist right?

can't imagine your computer there needs more than a few hundo watts, but this is a perfect DC-DC converter and all it needs is an external 12v brick for power. (or a battery so you could use a computer in your car without an inverter)

Thanks, but yes, I do know about similar fan-less solutions. The unit could probably get by on under 200 watts although the graphics card destined for this unit specs at ~300W again, probably could run on less. Many of my builds are all about using stuff I already have, I like the challenge of re-purposing stuff for my needs...sometimes I'll go to extremes when a ready solution may be available. For me that's part of the fun. I am a secret member of PBJs dumpster diver elite retrieval squad. Our Motto.."why pay, when it's free". it's a way of life. :P
