Mounting the beefy Hyper Neo Geo 64 Mobo - good idea!?
I like to mount my mobos... however, I'm a bit concerned that if I mount my Hyper Neo Geo 64 tank of a mobo in my Astro City it's going to either a) buckle the bracket or b) fall under it's own weight... or am I being an old mother hen? Just seems too heavy to me... 

Getting out the game... Buy my cabs!!

I do not have a Astro but my cabs have a plywood panel for fitting pcb,s and the Hyper fits on either with no problems.

To buckle that kind of steel you'd need a weight you couldn't lift

...reassuring comments guys... thanks for that... I'll mount it then, at least storing it in a cab will get the bloody great thing out the way for now!

You could always throw it out the window, or use it as a car jack...

While I have to say it's not the greatest system in the World for just how cheapy it is, it really isn't as bad as some people would have you think...Devil Soundwave wrote:You could always throw it out the window, or use it as a car jack...

Cheers Tony! I don't think some people realise just how **** heavy these things are so it's good to know you did exactly what I'm proposing and your cab didn't collapse under the weight of it!tonybolony wrote:i had a Neo 64 in my astro mounted on its side, it was fine
