So this is my first Hackintosh build, i thought i would go ahead and use a Power Mac G4 case. As this is my first build i will most likely learn alot of stuff and maybe i´ll do some misstakes as well. The build is already in process and some parts has arrived also, the case is almost modded so i think i am in the process of putting back all the plastic soon. I have some question though, about the cooling. I have watercooled CPU and the radiator is on the floor to the left under where the optical drive would have been. Now.. the fan is facing the metal and taking in air in the case trough the radiator that is on the top. Also i have the stock fan in its place where is used to be taking in air. I made some holes in the wall for the PSU to get some extra fresh air for the PSU. As far as i can see, i only have fans taking in air but nothing blowing out air.. so what should i do.. ??
The hardrives will be in its original place so i cant put anything more on the floor.. Some pictures of my build so far
