My live PC is an "embedded" box with a 4 core / 8 thread 2 GHz i7 CPU, 16 GB Ram and SSD without a FAN. So no mechanical parts and very robust. I mounted it on an alloy plate together with power supply, Audio I/O and DI box and decent sockets and fixed the plate in a trunk by rubber "thingies".

I don't need Monitor/mouse/keyboard attached when playing live. For configuration I can just plug them normally in the PC housing.
