time lapse building video: http://www.vimeo.com/1640088

 

hackintosh is: 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, Gigabyte EP35-DS3L, BFG Nvidia 8800GT OC 512MB, 2GB PQI DDR2 800MHz Ram, 750GB & 400GB Seagate Drives, Zalman CNPS9700, Antec Earthwatts 650W.

 

installed Kalyway 10.5.2 + 10.5.3/4 updates, fairly smooth install, nvinject for the 8800gt, nothing special really.

 

with the side panel closed, it stays fairly cool for only having ventilation at the four corners of the case - 38ºC

if im doing any compressor/dxo/photoshop/fcp work, ill usually just pop the side open and have it hum along at about 48-49ºC at full load

 

mac mini is roughly stock 1.66GHz Core Duo with an external esata drive hack.

Nice Looks Really Cool Much Cheaper to Make A MacPro Case Then Pay 300$ for it LOL ):

 

After watching the Time Laps Video I Would really like to Put my Hack in a MacPro Lego Case. If you could what would be the Best Way for me To build One.
