FPGAArcade case

They fit within the I/Panel as far as I know. But you have to punch your own holes for the expansion board in the I/O panel.

What I find 'strange' is that there are connection on BOTH sides of the board. If this is a standard mini-itx motherboard, how would you use that in a real mini-itx case?

The picture you see here is the daugtherboard from Yacube (the mainboard is a other version of replay board).
The final daughterboard will be different, and redesign (because some connectors are stacked on the replay v.b01 board)so I think most connectors on the daughterbard will be on one site to fit the io panel.

Last thing, anyone got a photo of the final design of the arcade FPGA (Populated)?

Here are some pictures from my fpga build into a A590 case there are also some picutes of the mainboard

So that means that you'd have to do the I/O panel again?

I recall Mike saying he will do a rerun of the I/O panels with daughterboard holes.

About to buy an 8GB SD Card for use with the Arcade FPGA. Is SDHC ok?

Was gonna get one of these here:

SDHC is alright.
I use a Transcend SDHC 32GB Class 10 with my replay board.
I have 2  4GB HDFFiles on it and about 13000 .ADF files, still room for more .

Hmmm maybe it is worth spending a bit more for a complete ADF File collection on it =)

Alway's handy to have the floppy's around ;-)

I think a CD/DVD player is not needed (CD ISO will work I think).
However A HD is welcom to store all your data for all your .iso files :-) and other stuff.
I have build-in a 1TB 2.5 HDD and sits under the replay PCB (see my pictures in the link above A590 build).
It's not working yet but with the release of the daughterboard it will.
There is also a MicroSD slot on the daughterboard so you can use a other sd cart there.

How would you connect the internal HD to the board?

Just modifying one of the USB Connectors to keep the usb connector inside, I have already the SATA/USB controller on my harddisk (from a external case)
