Desktop in Semi Truck

I've considered installing a desktop in my truck.  I have plenty of room in my ultraloft. My only concern is the constant vibrations and jarring while going down the road. Should I not bother, or are current desktops fairly resistant to this?

  • I am not completely sure but I would imagine constant vibrations would impact the desktop in negative ways. It seems like too much of a hassle for minimal benefit. You could always use a tablet or laptop that are way more portable and occupy less space. You could build a fold out tray for your laptap with a plug-in wired into your cars electrical system. There are powerful laptops that can perform near their desktop counterpart if you are looking to use cpu/gpu intense software. I do like your idea. I don't think I have ever seen desktop tricked out ride with maybe a medium sized 4k monitor before. It would definitely be cool just to much risk vs reward in my opinion. Good luck bro
