Yes please! I would love to see it too! I have a G5 that is begging to be converted to a hackintosh.

Can you show us more of the PSU? Really like to see how you did it

Ok I have Plenty of pictures but other people have done this better and cleaner and it is fairly simple. I would recommend taking it slow when messing with the psu. even tho it is shut off or unplugged it still holds electricity. (soooo mod at your own risk). The approach i took was keep the psu in the original case and cut the top off to fit it in the gutted psu of the g5.

In this picture you can see how i mounted the psu with screws on the right side. I also used the original g5 fan holes on the side and put much more quieter and efficient fans. I cut out the PSU switch and socket and put it in the original socket hole. If you do this be aware of what socket you buy its extremely important to make it fit. I also used the g5 ground next to the socket hole.





Also you can check out my Tuf love mod like Dschijn posted for more photos​
