We need some more posts here! This is what I was up to over the weekend...
A while ago I got this old Mac G3 for free and it was really too old slow and loud to put to any real use so I decided to throw away most of what was inside and put a more useful machine inside its nice case. I didn't add any ventilation holes or anything but I did add a 120MM fan to the bottom of the case just to move around air. Considering the only fan moving air in or out of the case is the one in the power supply I think my temps are pretty good. (50s and 60s running folding @ home) It will run at 2100+ but has errors when running 100% CPU. I'll get a better over clock later when I have the time, maybe even a small WC loop
Specs:
- XP 2000+
- 40 GB HDD
- SCSI Zip Disk drive
- DVD drive
- 3.5 floppy drive
^This image shows the only mod I need to do besides the motherboard tray. It just allows the heatsink and fan enough room for the top section of the case to fold back into place. The motherboard I installed mounted difrently than a non standard ATX Mac motherboard so I either needed to place the standoffs in the correct places or half ass it screw in a thin piece of wood and use small wood screws to secure the motherboard. Guess which one I did.
Also: Happy birthday to Joe turning 30 today!
