Apple Power Mac G4

[PeteGrimsby]

Hi and welcome to my 2011 pc build.. story short i will be putting a pc (windows based) into this mac case so all mac electrics will be taken out.

the case will be modified to fit pc parts and also will be customized. so if anyone has any ideas like a new design for the front face plate feel free to share

Thank you ... build will start soon as components arrive within the next couple of days

first stage will be a full dismantle of case and modifications for motherboard/psu and hdd's

I'm allergic to apples. Look foward to seeing how it all fits though.

Need to make this one tidy to get props from me dude. Cables need to be really good and everything needs to be very thought out.

Take a look at some of my builds to see what I mean

do you have a link to your builds mate? im really fussy on cable management too.. when this arrives im going to replace all internals with pc parts out of my build now and re do the hole lot. all cables are going to be sleeved individually uv green and blue i think

inside of case is going to be sprayed black and the outside panels will be transparent with the top front and back panels black with built in lcd fan controller on the front

but before i can do that i have to make motherboard mounts as this fits apple motherboard and not atx

loads of work but i think it will be worth it in the end

Cables in your current rig are terrible though mate?

A window!? I thought it was supposed to look like a Mac?

You already have a shiny shiny bling bling sort of rig, IMO you should make something classy

Good work so far, though.

 

[PeteGrimsby]

wont suppose to look like a mac mate.. because end of the day its not a mac the case is but technically its a windows pc lol i like to create something new hence all the mods and so on

some more pics carbon fibre psu/gpu/cpu heatsink covers

where did you get the vinyl stickers? Looks not too bad and I have some parts in my TJ07 that grey metal looks terrible and this vinyl might work wonders on.

What are you using to cut the windows? And what hardware lies within?
