Choosing Components
Hi @all,
first - beeing the new one here - I want to say hello to all of you and nice greetings from Germany.
I need a new Mac - and it should be a Hackintosh. Holidays are close and I want to use them to build it up!
I've read a few post and guides here and made some decisions:
1) Design is everything ! I want a nice looking one(G5 oder Mac Pro)
2) If possible I want to use a PSU out of the box - not putting it into the psu - chassis from apple
3) It must be quiet
Now I ask you experts in Hack Mods to help me:
should I buy a g5 oder a mac pro case ?
Most of the Mods here use the g5 - is it the better one ?
Is one easier to build a hack into ?
I' ve read something, that If I mount the PSU out of the box on the top of a G5 - I've to be carefull with the size of the mainboard ...
Is it easier in a Mac Pro case ?
Have I forgotten something ?
Greetings & many thanks for your replies.

PS: I haven'd made dicisions about mainboard an prosessor yet
