Hello everyone, I am a high school student from China. My English is not good, so I used Google Translate. I am dismantling a power Mac g5, I don't know the tool size required to disassemble the cpu.
Ask everyone to help me. For the sake of explanation, I drew a picture to show my intention.

I’m pretty sure that a long handle 2.5mm or 3mm hex driver will get those deep screws out.
I think the exact screw is a T10. I used a long handle 3mm Elkind t-handle on my MacPro and think it is the same for the older G5 too.

There’s a discussion about it here:

This is the exact tool I use on my MacPro:
