RE: Building a modern PC in a 2005 PowerMac G5 Aluminium Case

in #gaming2 years ago

I have a couple of these computers, both dual Xeons (Core 2 era). One of them I found in a trashcan. They are still fast enough for basic stuff, especially if you chose to install Linux on them. I do like the design but I'm not sure I have the patience to mod them when the original hardware dies.

Sort:  

I was a little tempted at picking at a psu off ebay, but at around £40 for working used ones with then the potential of finding more issues - it did not seem worth it especially as after the initial ooh it's old Mac Os or like you say installing Linux - it would end up being something I rarely touched. This I use every night, and I just like looking at the case - it fits the location I have it in perfectly and just looks such an imposing beast.
