I will start my 2nd G5 Mod in the near future.
For this project I will use the knowledge I got from my first mod and all the great inspiration from you!
My plans are:
- almost inaudible cooling
- keep the components dust free
- two 3,5" HDDs + two 2,5" SSDs in the upper part
- 120mm fan in the back
- mATX MB
- two 140mm fans in the front with simple detachable dust filters. Easy access after opening the G5 side panel
- no blocking of the airstream -> better GPU cooling -> quieter cooling (biggest issue of my first mod, maybe I should reactivate the water cooling)
- mod a PSU to fit inside the G5 PSU case
What I already have:
- 2x 140mm Enermax Cluster fans (front)
- 2x 140mm fan dust filters
- 1x 80mm Enermax Cluster fan (HDD Tray)
- 1x 120mm eLoop-P (back)
- Lian Li HDD tray for two SATA drives, I hope this can fit @ the G5 HDD tray location
- late 2004 G5 case with front panel and a G5 PSU case
- mATX 120mm LaserHive kit
- mATX mainboard (Asus P8Z77-M Pro)
- Seasonix X-560 PSU. This baby is working fanless up to 200Watts of load
- 4x 400x200x3mm black acrylic glass
