Hello I am new here and this is my first post so please be nice! If I make any egregious errors MY BAD! 

 

So I modded a mac pro case so that it has a pc motherboard tray inside. Then I put my pc in it. 

 

PC Parts:

Sony AD-7280S-0B 24x SATA

ASUS P8Z77-V PRO LGA 1155

EVGA GeForce GTX670 2048MB

SanDisk Extreme SSD 120 GB

Intel Core i7-2600k

Corsair Vengeance Blue 16 GB

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plis CPU Cooler 

Corsair Enthusiast Series 650-Watt 80 Plus Bronze Certified Power Supply

LG Blu-Ray Burner

Kingston Digital 120GB SSDNow V300 

Cold Cathode

1TB toshiba some some 

 

Here is a youtube video of the rebuild ( Not the case modding). I just set the camera up and worked away. The build is sped up to a 5 minute video.

Cool video mate.

I noticed that the obligatory "Why doesn't it start?!" *turns on the PSU* "Hmmm" happened :D

Awesome build.  I have a G5 case as well sitting somewhere in my basement.  I definitely want to do something similar when I can find the time.  

 

Also diggin the front PSU mount.  I think that makes the most sense in these cases.
