Re: i need help building this mac
Something that might be worth looking up online is a custom gaming rig someone build a few years back with a Socket A AMD mobo in a Quicksilver case. That might give you some ideas on how to get the power supply to fit. I believe he called it the Poison Apple. Try googling it.

I have a case of a quicksilver, but the parts of a G3 beige desktop. I was fed up at how old the casing of the G3 beige looked, so I took the entire G3 apart, and I am attempting to put the parts in the G4 quicksilver case, but the G3 power supply box won't fit. I tried an ATX power supply box, and looks like it didn't work out. Is there any ATX power supply box I could use to work with the G3 disguised as a G4 quicksilver? -- Sent from my Power mac G4 Sawtooth. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
