Hey all,
This is my first attempt at a hackintosh - I have a very mint G5 case with all internal parts except a hard drive and a fried processor. I've read through all the G5 mod threads here. Really amazing and helpful stuff!
I'm not as knowledgeable on the individual electronic component options as I'd like to be, but I'm learning. For simplicity's sake, I'm thinking of going with the second power budget build on Tonymac's blog.
At this time, I don't intend on cutting out the back panel, as I don't use many of the needed ports and would like to retain the original design for now. Given that, do you think the gigabyte board is a good bet to at least line up the pci slots? And if I do go with that board, any ideas on what sufficient cooling would be?
This noob appreciates any and all advice! Thanks!
