Karakino Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I know some1 here have surely tried to mod an existing g5 enclosure but had to cut more behind it because of the need of more slots for the pci express... I believe i've found the solution!!! Look here: http://store.orbitmicro.com/commerce/catal...product_id=5492 it is a female to male extension of the pci express 16x and in 3 inches i believe it can be done without cutting anything else! Don't know if 3 inches will be enough but as soon as all arrive to me, g5 case included, i'll make some experiments and report here. Anybody that is still waiting to cut but don't have the courage, use this thing and report here please to see if it works... CORRECTION: in the order phase if not specified the default lenght is 3", but if you want you can take 1 upt to 15"!!!

bofors Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I believe i've found the solution!!! Not at $50, but I think you are on the right track. Somebody needs to design and sell a G5 case "mod-kit" for about $100 that has every people need to do it right.

Željko Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Hi, i don't understand why you need more pci express slots, becuase you can use the first 4 slots. I try TV Card in the last PCI 32 bit slot a TV Card.
