G5 White Swan!

Hmm, there may be slight differences then. Just checked, and I needed a T8 and a 3mm hex for mine. Oh, and a 6mm socket driver for the nylock nuts on the corner braces.

Looks good, I too had my G5 powder coated. I'm thinking about doing a white Mac Pro mod. Here is a link to my G5 build.

Yet another small update... I just love the White with black elements theme .

The only thing that is messing with the them is the rubber T-shaped insulating thing on the side panel... A small part that was left extra (dunno how that happen )
Here's a pic of the leftovers on top of my MBP's palmrest...

Anyone know where I can buy this in ordinary black rubber?

Almost done with the modding guys . Only a few small kinks left to resolve... And I can start putting in the internals . Go to the first post for an update

Normally I don't like the painted G5's, but this is very clean. I think the powder coating makes a world of a difference versus a spray can. How much did it cost if you don't mind my asking?

Also, you thinking of adding any LED's to it? I think white LED's on a white case is my favorite color scheme.

I'm from Bulgaria and the powdercoating costed the equivalent of 12$. The spraypaint 4$ and the powermac 200$( though I might sell some of the parts)...

I'm not a fan of LEDs so for now there won't be any LEDs in the case...

Damn I just watched an unboxing on Newegg TV of the Mac edition of Sapphire Radion 7950... Would look sweet in my build...


Anyone from Sapphire reading this... Please send me one ...
