I'm looking for a case that has the motherboard upside down, I have also heard it called reversed ATX and BTX, I dont have a specific budget but the lower the price the better, I would prefer a mid tower or larger

you could mod an apple g5 case i guess haha, just have a look round on the list section and not the 'detailed list' of pc part pickers cases. anything with the panel opening on the right, not much we can do

I have 4 G5s and i tried modding it

My school has one, and damn is it ever beautiful. Did anyone else think the intake fans were propellers right off of a motor boat?

IF (BIG if) you manage to keep them at a low RPM you are OK, but at high RPMs, good bye hearing

have you got any pictures? thinking about doing the same to an old one of my dad's

i tried modding it, i wasn't able to because it didn't have the tools for it. you can look @LukaP they are doing it and they have a build log type thing of it.
