I’m not planning on buying anything more than some sort of rotory tool, be it Dremel sort of thing or a small drill machine that I can use for both drilling and eventually cutting. The subjective quality of the inbuilt audio seems really very good and monitoring from the output jack sounded identical to what I was hearing from my 828.
I also have some ideas for HDD and SSD mounting using the same enclosure, but that is in the realm of wishful thinking. Most pre-G4 Apple computers had line-level audio input and output at quality that was often surprisingly usable, and this has made a welcome return on the G5.
Build a pc in apple g5 case mac#
I have some cable management ideas, that requires me to disassemble the Mac PSU and use the case from it. I have an idea for the PSU, but I’m not entirely sure if it will fit. Part 4: finding a place for all the hardware. I got a shiny new Apple G5 for Christmas. The last resort is buying a second hand case and riping the back panel off of it. I hope Andy’s confession soothes those who felt so strongly about gutting a perfectly good G5. The new Power Mac G5 line also includes Apple’s next generation mouse, Mighty Mouse, featuring up to four programmable. Not really sure about that but I will see.
Basically use the GPU mounting bracket from the mining frame as a PCIe mounting bracket. I have an idea to simply remove the back panel and cut an IO opening and PCIe opening. The Power Mac G5 was the first Apple computer to have its interior which most users would never even see designed by. I honestly have no earthly clue how I’m going to do that. The G5’s gorgeous design wasn’t limited to the unique case, either. There are no dedicated modding stores here so I have to do whatever I can with whatever I have. I’m gonna use the standoffs from the original board to mount the motherboard tray. The idea is to get a cheap ass mining frame and use the motherboard tray from it. Take out everything to the point I can paint the case, so basically take everything apart. iPod, iPhone, iPad, iTunes and Mac are trademarks of Apple. I really like the case, the open mesh front, the solid alumin(i)um construction, the simple look…Īnd to be fair I really need to thinker with something. 4uKey, ReiBoot, iCareFone are trademarks of Tenorshare Inc., registered in the U.S.
