Thanks! I connected the Front IO with the G5 ATX Adapter Cable from BlackCH mods.

Totally agree with @craighazan you don't need to use The Laser Hive Kit like I did! You can totally build a custom "G5" without cutting anything on the exterior if you wanted. For me I wasn't going for a stock look and the components I am using wouldn't have worked for my needs hence my decision...

For Components have a look here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/buyersguide/building-a-customac-hackintosh-the-ultimate-buyers-guide/ I will be posting a parts list for you of mine this weekend, but my gear is pretty out dated nowadays, but still gets the job done lol. But looking forward to...

Sorry for the delay guys! I finally got all the parts I was waiting on and time to document the next stage in the build which was putting the system in and fabricating a custom cable management panel which you will see below! ;) I apologize for the rush post as I didn't document every single...

No worries! For my build I think it definitely was because I didn't have to modify any of my current components and it just looks cleaner imo. But be prepared to do some custom fabrication like cutting like I displayed in my pass threads.

Thanks so much! And I do! I am currently finishing up the build today, so I will be posting more photos as well as a full part list!

Thanks! Its for photo/video and gaming! It does have holes matching the case, its just that when you make it a Full-ATX like in my case with the PSU up top you need to cut out the back to allow room for the board to sit flush. Cooling is going to be handled with the front EVGA 280mm Front AIO...

The build is looking awesome!!! Nice work!

More Progress! So I finally had a chance to transfer over my current components from my original case to check/plan out the layout for the G5 case. I very quickly realized that I wasn't going to be able to use the original back panel and needed to use the Laser Hive Full ATX back plate for my...

Hey! Still figuring out my case layout, since I still have a few potential parts on the way! As for the G5 covers not too sure yet! I think they are really cool to keep inside, but with my water cooling setup I am not sure where I should put them yet. But once I have most of the main...

Alright so most of my parts finally came in today and I made some good progress! Here is the NEW AIO I ordered: EVGA CLC 280mm AIO RGB LED CPU Liquid Cooler (400-HY-CL28-V1) - https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01N16CAKN/?tag=tonymacx86c0c-20 This will be going near the front of the case, still...

Thanks for the message! And no problem! I am going to try my best to link everything I use in the build going forward, this way if anyone wants to use the same parts, etc they can easily find it all in this thread.

Thanks so much for the reply! And Awesome! :headbang: I will definitely check out your build as well! I saw Wise-Rice build and it looks very clean! As for using the LaserHive I want to use the custom ATX Motherboard Tray with the hidden SSD Drives behind it, but still debating if I am going to...

Hey Guys! Been a follower of the community for sometime now and always wanted to try this mod out for myself. I recently acquired a working Powermac G5 off my local classifieds for only $60! AND I promise I will either use or give these working parts to someone else so that they can live on! ;)...
