Did you build this config ? If you did I would be interested in your experience. I was planning to do the same. Thanks

I have modded two G5's in the past couple of years and thought I was finished modding until I started reading the G4 Cube threads. Well I got hooked real quick and started to look for justification to build one. I decided out guest bedroom needed a computer station for our guests and what...

Thanks for the replies. I will post some pics but there about the same as this project except I did replace DVD drive with one that was mentioned in one of the threads. I had to cut the case of the original drive housing to get it to fit. The bottom fan also had to have its corner cut more to...

Well I'm back from the holidays and have made progress on my Cube project. I followed your design methodology and used most of the same components. Thanks to this forum I have successfully got the cube running Mavericks. Components: Perfect cube (No scratches) I3-3225s Intel mobo-DQ77...

Mobo/I/O Plate alignment questions Did you attach aluminum blocks to screws and mobo and align on rails before you JB weld. I was trying to get a better idea on how you did all of that tricky stuff I have all the parts needed but will start dismantle soon Dennis

After further reading your thread I had a couple more questions 1) I assume you cut back I/O with dremel 2) I am confused when you mention usb 3 and then 4 pin Startech ...is it usb 2.0

Thanks it helps greatly..I ordered wireless card and found DVD drive from the thread you mentioned. I will order touch device in near future I will start removing old components soon and probably have more questions as I progress Thanks Dennis

Ok I have your recommended board on order. Any suggestion on I3 vs I7 ? I probably won't actually start cutting etc until January The cube I got actually is running OS 9 I think. It's not here yet I will be following one of your threads for the build

I applaud your work and have been following this thread getting educated on the process. I have a G4 Cube on the way. I have modded a G5. This will be a challenge for sure. Is there another mobo that can be used like GIGABYTE GA-H77TN ? Is the main difference the power supply onboard? and...

Neil thanks for the quick response. I have modded a G5 already but after seeing yours I bought another case and would like to replicate what you designed. I plan to put in an I7 Haswell. It will be a winter project with most of it fabricating the case so I may have questions from time to...

Fantastic work. Thanks for posting I have a G5 case and was wondering on your mod how you fabricated the excellent metal work How did you bend Mobo base metal to standoff base also how did you fasten standoffs ? Did you fabricate a new cover for psu? Did you use micro atx Mobo ? Thanks...
