Basic model of the area of the desk I am working with the green area will be hinged and the entire PC will be mounted underneath trapdoor style.I have mobo tray and back I salvaged from a LanCool Case.
This will be mounted to the bottom of the highlighted piece of desktop. More CAD stuff to come as soon as I figure out how to make it

The goal is to have 2 shelves for the surround sound, XBOX 360 and PS3 with fans cooling them and the computer hanging above.

With all the ovens you're stacking ontop of eachother... please please please ensure you do a realy good job with the ventilation and cooling in there or you'll burn out ur stuff in no time.
Something about when i was in highschool, and the IT department decided since they just got a new computer room, they'd put the computers in a safe place as the students vandalise them like nothing, as in blatantly destroying the machines or its working when they walk in and when they walk in it wont boot as it no longer had any ram kinda deal. Just noting the room was airconditioned as well.
So they made an enclosed area within each desk that would seat the actual computer, real real small hole up the back that only just fit out all the cables and a meshed area with 1 fan pulling the heat from inside to outside the enclosed area.
The computers in that room lasted 6 months. The ones that survived were sent to the people that the IT department hated most, and the next lot of PC's in that room were funnily enough, back ontop of the desks!
Heat + Enclosed Space, even with some cooling = disaster waiting to happen. Please keep this in mind as you do this bit

Yeah I plan on at least 4 200mm fans but I might go 6 depending on budget ect... and the PC itself will be water cooled (hopefully we will see where my budget lands) Also the PS3 and Xbox should almost never be running at the same time and with the mesh shelving that should really improve the airflow.
