Looks absolutely amazing, one of the cleanest mods that I have ever seen.Those last shots at the end in particular :drool:

ha! its very well a possibility that apple could make the next mac pro like this. I mean, the entire rest of the lines are two toned. make sure to getcha ROYALTIES!

awesome design, right up my alley, clean, detailed, smart, and cool. not about going all out but getting hte best balance possible!

he can't, since the original case design was probably apple patented, they'll just take the idea and run with it.

Thanks for the kind words el rolio. It's interesting as others have mentioned this to me before. I think Bluephoenix is right though, as it was a Mac case to begin with with a patented design i dont think i can claim any kind of royalty. :) Not that i would really want to as i made this for me, not for mass production. :D

You really did better. I go now to my tiny H2O-C7 project. This is the best G5 on the intertube.

Wow, thats really clean looking. If I had the tools, I would probably try and mod one myself.

a True work of art Mac case - modded to become pure PC perfection.

I have been trying to get hold of a G5 case and do some modding myself with a very different theme. This really inspires me to look harder for that case.

GREAT WORK

huze5 29th June 2009, 22:07

stonedsurd 1st October 2009, 10:44

That's beautiful. Truly stunning work.

akibro 15th October 2009, 09:05

I just bought a Mac Pro chassis... its about to meet its maker...

This has been the inspiration that I need!

Awesome work man!

atilla101uk 26th December 2009, 04:37

hey cyprio I dunno if you are still browsing these forums and comments but just wanted to know what size drill bit did you use to driller the aluminuim strips out and also what epoxy did you use to hold the mobo standoffs and hold the rear backplate in

jcb121 27th December 2009, 07:12

looks a treat, good work :D

Farfalho 20th April 2010, 12:30

Sir, you have made it! An awesome G5 mod and going for the details I love the most, simple, subtle, well-made without changing the overall look of the case. Apple could learn a thing or two from you eheheh

fernblatt 21st April 2010, 01:05

This, dear sir, is the most astounding G5 case mod I've yet seen! I've had it in mind to do a similar project, but without the perspex window - I want to keep the metal RFI-proofing intact so as not to interfere with a rack of wireless gear nearby.

But, once again, this mod is a benchmark for any future mods!! Wonderful!!

bluespine 24th June 2010, 15:52

wow..This mode very beautiful. great.
