Mac G5 case for a PC

[Frankenfeet]

Anyone have any idea if a case similar to the Mac G5 case is available for a PC. I really like the looks of the G5. I think the G5 is backwards compared to a PC though. The motherboard mounts on the left of the case versus a the right for a PC. I did a google seach on an empty G5 case, but I didn't come up with anything. by the way, if I were to find a G5 case I could mount the PC mobo upside down. TIA

I'd say good luck getting a PC in a G5 case without a fair amount of work.

The Coolermaster ATC-410 is a nice alternative. It'll cost you $345+ if you really want one though...

Anyone know where to get the fans that the G5's use???

Which feature of the G5 case do you want appearance or function? I saw a review of a similar appearing case somewhere but can't recall where. CompUSA used to sell a case with a mobo tray that hinged out - not sure if they still do. It was a beige case with a smoked translucent plastic front. I've not seen one with both - though there is no good reason it couldn't be done. Ooops, guess I was thinking about the G4.

I was looking more for the cooling "zones" and quietness of the g5 cases. I don't give a crap about hinges. 🙂 It'll proly never happen. I may get that coolermaster.

panflo low or medium or vantec stealth. Get rubber things so they don't vibrate and make noise.
