It has always been a dream of mine to convert a X86 System into one of the newer generation PowerMac boxes, having admired the sleek, curvatious mean cases for a very long time. I’m not planning on buying anything more than some sort of rotory tool, be it Dremel sort of thing or a small drill machine that I can use for both drilling and eventually cutting.So starts my 1st Project Log Down Under. I also have some ideas for HDD and SSD mounting using the same enclosure, but that is in the realm of wishful thinking. I have some cable management ideas, that requires me to disassemble the Mac PSU and use the case from it. I have an idea for the PSU, but I’m not entirely sure if it will fit. Part 4: finding a place for all the hardware.
The last resort is buying a second hand case and riping the back panel off of it. Not really sure about that but I will see. Basically use the GPU mounting bracket from the mining frame as a PCIe mounting bracket. I have an idea to simply remove the back panel and cut an IO opening and PCIe opening. I honestly have no earthly clue how I’m going to do that. There are no dedicated modding stores here so I have to do whatever I can with whatever I have. I’m gonna use the standoffs from the original board to mount the motherboard tray. The idea is to get a cheap ass mining frame and use the motherboard tray from it. Take out everything to the point I can paint the case, so basically take everything apart. I really like the case, the open mesh front, the solid alumin(i)um construction, the simple look…Īnd to be fair I really need to thinker with something.
