Just looking for some thoughts on this from the group here. I am considering upgrading from 3225 to 3770 in my Cube and realize I could be getting into some heat issues. I have a Noctua NH-L9i cooler, an 80mm Noctua PWM fan at the bottom, and 40mm Noctua at the top which I am considering with...

Just dusted off my old cube build to set up as a server- removed the optical drive and put in a 2tb HDD. I did a fresh install of Mavericks using Clover and just the vanilla config.plist seems to get everything going just fine. I have Ethernet, wifi, graphics working fine (have not installed...

I am away from this site for a day and all of a sudden I've got all kinds of compliments, inquiries, and a few scoldings. First, thanks for the kind words. But as minihack said, it was a very quick mod so I bet in however long it takes amazon to ship these things +1 day we will see this...

Thanks neilhart, Highest compliments coming from you. Once I get the proper USB cable I am going to add a 1TB 2.5 HDD into the case for storage, and perhaps create an internal Apple BT solution. I know that i could just cut my current USB cable and wire it up to the USB header on the board...

Thanks minihack- you know I always value your compliments. You are absolutely right; it was a very quick conversion. All I did was remove the PCB that came with the enclosure, made a couple slits for the NUC PCB in the back with my Drexel and used some JB weld for the front two stand offs...

Thanks Yannich, I'm pretty pleased with it. I had tried tucking it into the old Cub PSU shell, but couldn't come up with a clean power button solution. The added bonus of this case is that it matches the old school Apple monitor, too. Spence

I finally found a case I like for my NUC - the iMac G4 mod will have to wait. I am pretty pleased with this thing except that the power LED is red rather than white. As you can see from the pictures, there is room to fit a 2.5 HDD in the case and once I get the right USB cable I will do so...
