I bought 4 shelf bracket like this https://imgur.com/a/qlYnqMQ and my plywood is 1feet and 2feet and I use it as a platform, the question is, can this 4 shelf brackets hold my 10kg for so long because my room is so small so the only option is to mount my pc on the wall, I don't have so much money to buy a pc case with mounting features in the wall, even the pc case holder I saw in amazon because my country doesn't have access to amazon the shipping tax is double the price, sorry for my english I am living in 4th world country
 
Solution
absolutely it will.1/2 inch plywood would do the trick with these brackets.that having been said what kind of material is your wall?if it is wood you should have no problems.if it is drywall you will need to drill and install anchors for the screws.dont worry,sounds more complicated than it is.lol
 
It can't be that bad. 4th world? :/ Might I ask where you're located?

I wouldn't rest my system on any shelf held up with a bracket of that sort/build. Can't you simply fabricate your shelf/mounting? You're forgetting that like all things in a computer, it's an investment. If you skimp out, the very first thing you'll be living with till the end of time is regret if and when the system falls off the wall.

I'm an architect by education and the shelves that are at the stores are built robustly to hold up a case that weighs 5KG when empty. Double that and you will need reinforcements.
 


my wall is cement, I can't install it in woods because my pc will be affected by vibrations of the large subwoofers, so I need to mount my pc on solid cemented wall, the plywood is I think half of inch but I can think it will hold my pc well, the only thing I'm worried about is this bracket, my desktop case is deepcool tesseract, psu seasonic s12ii 520, cpu g4560, mobo asus h110m-d, gpu palit dual oc gtx 1050ti, ram hyperxfury 4gb ddr4 2400mhz, hdd 1 wd 1terrabyte caviar blue
 

I will put a big nylon strap to my pc case in case of earthquake, so my pc case last resources is the strap seriously my bracket is the largest of its kind in the mall, the lenght of the top is 1feet, I bought 4
 
You yet haven't mentioned where you're located. Are you legitimately solving your own issue here? It seems like you're trying to hear what others have to say and hope that they'll say what you're thinking.

If so then this thread is pointless. If not, then constructively moving forward is the point of opening a thread.
 


sorry my country is philippines
 
Can you shoot us an image of the sort of Plywood you have access to? I would suggest you try and source a slab of proper wood. The way Plywood is manufactured, will mean that it can't withstand shear force. The strap will do little when the plywood will give out at the center underneath your case and drop to the floor.
 
what you can do to make it more full proof is uses some pvc pipe and wood and add support under the playwood so that there no downward force from the weight trying to pull the brackets from the wall.

anthoer thing you can do if there a local metal shop is make a system that has a nice flat tray for the case and l brackets to bolt into the wall.

this one, I don't know the measurement of the thickness but I will combine this two, the measurement of this two is 1feet and 2feet, I will combine this two so it will be thick, for now I put a heavy object to make my plywood leveled, because as I see the plywood have little bend sorry this is the pics https://imgur.com/a/0aEKzow
 

as I said we don't have easy access in amazon, and all over seas online seller will charge us twice as the price of their products due to the tax of my country,
 


check this one I see on youtube see the desktop pc put that in the shelve, its 5times heavier than my setup with that monster build, my pc weights around 9kg or 10kg on its own, can you test how durable this shelves sir https://imgur.com/a/k9htrLM
 


I don't know the things you mention is so complicated, and it cost me more than the actual products you've mention
 
You bought 4 of those brackets right? What sort of a length and width are you looking to fab the top on which the PC will rest? Oh right, you forgot to mention your full system's specs. Yes, I'll need to know all your components including the case.

FYI, the thing I'm talking about is the bulge in the underside of the shelving the case is resting to the right:

Your bracket could pull off the task but then again I'm a little skeptical about the quality of your plywood. Like I said the way plywood is manufactured leaves a lot without strength. If you expose the plywood board to moisture, it'll eventually flex and grow weak.
 


sir my spec is pc case: deepcool tesseract bf, mobo asus h110m-d, cpu intel g4560 stock heatsink, ram hyperxfury ddr4 2400mhz 4gb, gpu palit gtx 1050ti dual oc, psu seasonic s12ii 520w, hard drive: 1 wd caviar blue 1tb, the piece of plywood is I don't know the brand name, my neighbor just give it to me I will try to glue it but the the two plywood is a little bit heavy when I combine it
 


see this pic sir https://imgur.com/a/BaojRpQ you will see my cheap setup and sorry for my ultra dirty cheap room too, on top of my monitor that's where I will mount my pc as you can see its close to my bed where I sleep so if the desktop fall on my head there is 99 chance it'll kill me so I will put a strap to secure my pc, I search in whole internet I haven't see an idea like this before, the plywood isn't thick I will test a single plywood
 


just use a cement bit to drill your holes and use the proper anchors.those brackets will hold just fine.
