Mac Pro Mod

[roman26]

Alright guys, here is my mod, dont really know is it good or not really, but after loooong 8 weeks struggle with that son of the b.t..h i managed to almost finish it.

Here is the Specs:

P55a-ud6 motherboard
i3 540 3.06 intel processor
Corsair A70 cooler, but only with one fan, as there is back exhaust fan.
Bfg nvidia 285 gtx
3 HDD : 500gb - windows7, 400gb - mac osx, 1.5 TB - Backup, installs, etc.
Pioneer DVD- RW
Antec 650watt PSu

To solve heat problem i took second fan from cpu cooler and installed it to hdd caddy, Seems working, but not that good.

Just have to get 2 new fans which controlled by motherboard instead of 2 molex fans, bluetooth and wi-fi adapter. (but dont really know which ones will be copatible with hackintosh)

Thats basically it. Please, comment .

Awesome build!
I'm in the process of doing a build almost exactly like this. How did you get the rear panel to clear the rear exhaust fan? I've been test fitting parts and I can't get the 120mm fan to clear the rear I/O panel.

You have to make some adjustment/ cut rear exhaust panel (will post pictures later on)
