A project log for GameCubePC

The complete GameCube computer that replicates original functionality and adds several new features without sacrificing performance

A Power Switch PCB was designed to mount the original GameCube power switch to, along with a JST header for connecting to the motherboard.

Then began its integration onto the motherboard standoffs. A 60mm exhaust fan was also added, but in the end a 50mm fan was decided on to save space. The 60mm fan would interfere with the USB header on the motherboard and make it nearly impossible to plug anything in.

A few modifications were also made to the bottom shell, adding cutouts for the front I/O and a much sturdier slot for the front panel to drop into.
