![]() ![]() So far I've gutted the G5, removed all the stand-offs, and began work on the PSU and Motherboard tray.įor a motherboard tray, I looked around online at Lian-Li and MountainMods but after some consideration, I realized I had a full aluminum tray collecting dust in my garage which I saved years ago for a project just like this. I'll have pics of that tonight once I get some time. I plan on using an mATX motherboard so I can also keep the power supply where it belongs, but I'm already in the process of changing out the guts of the PSU with a 600w OCZ I had laying around. I haven't completely decided on the guts but I know I'm going to configure it to retain the rear expansion slots but remove the I/O ports. So I've built a few Hackintosh systems in the past but never the actual case even though I've been modding PCs since AMD released the first Athlon in 1999. it was deduced that the logic board was shot and in addition to payment for the work, he gave me the computer to do as i see fit. last week a relative called me and asked if i'd come down to his office to diagnose why his backup graphic design PowerMac G5 dual 1.8 (June 2004) was not booting and after some frustration with the common "3 blinks" memory error, trying other good ram, and many other things. For many years I've wanted to get my hands on one of these beautiful and incredibly well built PowerMac G5 cases and do a Hackintosh conversion but back when I got the idea they were far too expensive to risk the project on, and in recent years I was just too busy. ![]()
