Is this possible?

Okay so with the Mac Pros design that I think looks brilliant, and you have to admit its a design feat, so it makes me wonder if a standard desktop could achieve this, all be it with less powerful parts.

So the case to me is a no brainer, a black FT03 system completely stripped.
I was thinking H50 CPU cooler at the bottom set to intake and then have the CPU set to passive cooling, similar to linus ultra silent PC.

For the CPU in question I was thinking a G3258, overclocked of course, 4.6Ghz/4.8Ghz if possible (wafer dependant)

For the GPU a passive 750Ti, the KalmX from Palit seems decent, I have always wanted to build a system with a g3258 and 750ti in
For the RAM, any LP 1600Mhz RAM, I say LP so airflow is not restricted as much.

For the mobo, Asus z97IPlus

For Storage, M.2 SSDs, specifically Samsung, I love samsung drives, maybe a SM951 SSD

And maybe a fan on top in the CPU socket.

So would this be possible? I like the idea of it, and it was more speculation of a PC I would love to have, even if it does not run OSX.

Would the two fan system actually be enough to cool it? and maybe play games

Why a passive 750Ti?

 

Also G3258 doesn't need a Z97 board, H81 can overclock it.

 

For gaming though I'd suggest a 760K/860K over a G3258.

This is why everything is passive and the fact 750ti are rather good for gaming on a smaller scale and does not require the user to tear apart a card and source a aftermarket cooler.

I picked the Intel over the AMD due to heat, and I hear the G3258s are rather nasty when they are overclocked, but if the temps can be kept down a 860k would be decent.
And I simply like that board, of course if someone wants to build this they can use what they wish

It should all work
