Powermac G4 MDD Mod #HELP

[inadav]

Hey guys,
I am going to receive a used Powermac G4 MDD today, and I've been thinking
about modding it - I have a pretty old mATX board around, 2 Gig's of RAM and 500GB 7200rpm hard drive
anyways, I have heard that there's a problem with placing PCI-e cards in the MDD model and I'm not going to place on it so
Anyways - Is there a way to make a G4 MDD stormtrooper paint job? have you ever seen one? All of the pictures I have seen of storm trooper g4 are G4 Quicksilver and not MDD

Thank you very much, Have a good day

Hi there
The biggest problem I had when I was doing my G4 sawtooth was making everything fit, especially the power supply and cpu cooler!
I'm sorry I don't know anything on the paint job, I kept mine stock paint but have a look at some of the G4 modding threads on here and you will see some very cool paint jobs, so I'm sure someone can help you there
Here is my thread on the sawtooth if you want to see how I made it all fit, I think Mdd's are about the same size though!

Good luck, and if you need any advice on how to make stuff fit or wire something I might be able to help!

I have took all of the parts out, Did someone created a guide about how to insert the mATX boards into it & where / where am I supposed to cut holes for the motherboard (if there is no other option - Without cutting)


Anyways, Thanks & have a good day!

I would suggest you look at thelaserhive.com's conversion kits. My Graphite G4 looks awesome thanks to their kits.
