Obayesshelton Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Is it possible to put an Imac into a Mac Pro Case the reason I want to do this is that I love the look of the Mac pro and I want to add 2 drives and add more ram and have two monitors.

Thath0r Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Nothing is impossible. But you should consider the facts, though. Buying a 1500$-2000$ iMac plus a Mac Pro case isn't worth the effort. You'll be better on, if you spend about 800$ for Hardware and build yourself a Hackintosh with decent hardware. In addition, in case you already own an iMac: It's a crime to cripple an iMac like that. Seriously, leave the iMac right where it is. Don't do it. And if you really wanna have a cheap PC in a Mac Pro case go for a 'normal' Hackintosh. /Thath0r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U.C. Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 The iMac MB is very small. just mount it on a wood back and screw it into the Mac Pro case. Not too sure how the connectors and ports are gonna work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just per curiosity, you can add extra drives via USB or connect one of them onto the DVD drive connector and eventually connect the DVD drive via USB, but I am wondering how you will add a second monitor to the iMac Mobo.
