I've got a slot cut for the HDD so it sits nicely in the bottom of the case below the motherboard
I've also been having problems getting the VGA cable in such a tiny space. I tried butchering a cable to get it in but it was still too long. I looked at a right angle adapter but there wouldn't have been space in the bottom of the case after it was angled downwards so I've had to get some supplies and make my own.
As you can see it's still going to be an unbelievably tight gap
I'll make a custom VGA cable that'll go to the back of the case and hard mount a female VGA connector next to the power connection to then connect a proper VGA cable up to go out to the monitor.
And I've also hollowed out one of the old controller ports and epoxied a female USB socket to it so I can plug my USB controller in properly.
All this soldering's making me glad I took A Level Electronics
