Mac Pro Tower Case.

CJHGunner

I plan on doing a build and while looking for a cases I came to the decision I wanted to use one of the old Mac Pro cases. I have always liked the looks of them but as my main use for my desktop is gaming I prefer the compatibility of Windows I never brought the Mac. Are there any cases that attempt to mirror the design or where I could find a Mac Pro or case for a cheap price? I am from the UK so preferably links or shops within the UK would be preferable.

You will have to drill into the case a lot if you plan to fit a normal motherboard in there.

All the parts are here, just need to get customized cords to connect the motherboard to the front panel.

If you plan on modding it, check the thread in my signature. I will be ordering the plates I need this week. Expect it to be here next week :)

There is a decent amount of PC builds using a modified Mac Pro Case if you mean the G5 case. But beware, the modifications seem to involve a lot of drilling and cutting.

 

An alternative tha comes close to the material, color and look is the Lian-Li PC-V1000 which will cost you around 200$. A similar amount to what you pay for a well maintained G5.

Yeah I am well prepared to mod it I have worked on a couple of them before. I just enjoy the aesthetic of the case which is why I was looking for cases with a similar style and why I am willing to put in the work. Luka cheers I will give the post a look. Also Stuka that Lian-Li PC-V1000 is not a bad shout plus it gives me more mounting options for cooling so I might well use that.
