The long piece with two rounded corners sits underneath the glass sidepanel and hides the PSU cables. The little piece next to it fits to the front panel connectors (2 USB-A, 1 USB-C, 1 microphone, 1 headphone). The lower left piece is for the backside, there is room for one more 120mm fan. It can be screwed to the existing standoffs and will have matching holes for ATX standoffs. On the upper left you can see the mainboard tray. The middle piece is for the front fans and to cover the mainboard cables. The part on top sits underneath the PSU and the 5.25″ BluRay player. It’s one big piece, which has to be bent mulitple times. On the right side there is the inside piece for fan/radiator mouting. Have a look at the picture called ‘The lasercut pieces’.

UPDATE: Added DFX-Download of the lasered partsĪs always, feel free to comment, if you liked this post or have questions. Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 Gaming with EKWB waterblock.Intel Core i7-6700K with Watercool waterblock.Front IO with audio in and out, and two USB 3.0 and one Typ C port. Test fitting the new front IO with the lasercut aluminium. Backside (PSU-Mount, Back IO, and 120 mm exhaust fan) and bottom (2*140 mm radiator intake). Since I liked the tempered glass side panel of the In Win 805, this casemod should feature likewise a tempered glass side panel. The optical DVD should be replaced with my BluRay drive.

Also there should be 280 mm radiators in the front and bottom. The back IO and the mainboard tray have to be changed to fit a ♚TX mainboard. The front USB 2.0 and firewire connectors aren’t up-to-date.

Because the Apple Power Mac G5 series is now over 10 years old, many things have to be changed.

Since a lot of the Apple Power Mac G5 cases on Ebay were in a poor condition or overpriced, it took a few weeks until I finally got my case. Considering my experience and knowledge I gained with the eGPU project, I thought, I could design a few lasercut aluminium pieces. But those kits didn’t made the Apple Power Mac G5 watercooling-ready. Those kits let you mount an ATX mainboard and use the back IOs. Most of them used professionally made, lasercut conversion kits available for around 100 €. A few people bought old Apple Power Mac G5 cases and changed them internally to fit ATX mainboards.

But the price of over 170 € at the time held me back from immediately buying the In Win 805.Īfter looking around in build logs on many forums, I found an other candidate for my new PC case. The support of the HAF 922 wasn’t satisfactory (A 240 mm in the top and 120 mm radiator in the back). But since my new PC should have watercooling, the support for radiators bigger radiators (A 360 mm in the front and 120 mm radiator in the back) could potentially compensate for that. I missed the option for an optical drive. I also realized that the In Win 805 wasn’t the perfect PC case. So one must evaluate, which objectives are more important. And cheap doesn’t go with any of the others. But often powerful PCs require big, noisy air coolers. A quiet, good-looking, powerful and cheap PC is the vision of every PC owner. Over this time I thought what features of a PC would be important for me. Since I was busy with work for my bachelor thesis, the “New PC”-project was paused until June. The simple and high-quality design in combination with the tempered glass side panel made me want to build a new PC in this case. But overall it was okay, until I saw the In Win 805 last winter. The lack of USB 3.0 ports in the front was annoying for using fast USB storage media. First of all the build quality of the old case was not up to today’s standards. At that time I liked the design, but a few reasons lead to a wish for a new case. Over the last six years I had the Cooler Master HAF 922 computer case. At least I took many photos over this period of time to document its progress. But whenever I found time, I rather continued the casemod instead of writing here. Originally I wanted to do a build log over this time to show its progress. This project took many weekends over this summer.
