shootingfreak101 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Hey guys I was browsing through newegg and came across this case. I think it looks really similar to a mac pro/ mac g5/g4 case! It's made of galvanized steel and the best part is....It only costs $45.99 and comes with a psu...though it probably isn't that good of a psu. So you get an almost identical case without having to do any modding! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16811164060 What do you guys think?

~ BlurKing Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 That's really cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootingfreak101 Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 I agree. It isn't a complete identical but looks very similar and is really inexpensive. It has the ventilated/galved stell in the front and the two extended arms and legs like the mac cases. You just need to slap a big Apple stick on the side and presto!

~ BlurKing Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Yea. But it doesn't have those wonderful drive mounts in the Mac Pros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootingfreak101 Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 stills it's $45.99 vs. ~$250 and without the modding hassle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dnjmarlboro Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I owned this "Mac Pro" Case until some weeks ago. Since the quality is very very bad, i give it away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagar Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 If I could find them anywhere near me, I'd buy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salax Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I actually bought that case a few months ago, and had it a bit modded.. These pictures are from my cell phone, sorry about the poor quality. I will try to take better shots soon! The front panel is covered with a 2mm aluminum (perforated) sheet cut with a dremel (thanks brother) and the USB, audio, power and reset switches were moved from the lower trap-door to an empty space on the front. The Apple logo on the sides was hand-painted by yours trully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootingfreak101 Posted October 12, 2008 Author Share Posted October 12, 2008 Wow! That looks great. Good job. Are those Apple stickers that you added or is that part of the mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
