你好。麻烦给个图片的地址吗?

我想看你G4改机的图片。谢谢。
post #354 of 373
Thanks for some great info! You've inspired me to pull an old G4 tower out of my basement and use it for my next machine.

The first of what I'm sure will be lots of questions... Did you find that a Micro-ATX motherboard was the only way to go? (eg - full ATX is too big for these cases)

this is an awesome build.I have been thinking about modding my old g4. this inspires me to do it. Thanks

I am working on a case that looks a lot like yours does. I got it painted before I even saw this post.

http://www.tonymacx86.com/case-mods/69614-powermac-g4-case-mod.html#post431308

I am having some problems with gaps between the plastic door panel and the "handles". I was wondering if you had any experience with this.

Also how did you get the disk drive to work?

You can get an ATX board to fit but the approach would be different as you would have to remove the back of the case and mount the board on the inside instead of on the door. I may do just that for my next G4 conversion wink.gif

Post away once you get it up, I have an ATX board that I want to jam into my other G4 case.

Also how did you get the disk drive to work?

The gaps between the polymer panes is a result of the case slowly succumbing to the effects of gravity and changing shape a little. I have found that switching the feet from front to rear aleviates this a little as the weight distribution is opposite that way. As for the DVD drive I went with the easiest option for Macbane; and external USB model.

What size of motherboard offsets did you use?

I am too the point of mounting the motherboard.


Also I did manage to fit a desktop DVD drive in it. It is very short because it came from and HP small form factor computer.

I believe you are referring to the length of the motherboard standoffs. Instead of regular standoffs I mounted the motherboard on threaded posts with 7-8mm PVC spacers under the board.

Here are the posts, threaded in from the backside of the door:



And here are the spacers and the nuts that secure the board:



I hope that answers your question thumb.gif
