the super g5

I get in maybe 50-70 G5's a year so I am used to the honking heatsinks but the college whoever really wanted to go all in with this one first time I come across in a g5 sure other systems and personal towers but dang that's super cooling power with this cooling unit, dint take a pic of the bottom with the 2 processors but its also had all its regular fans and upgraded memory and video card. weighed in at almost 58lbs with case

I got 2 of those as well, just the other day!

Nicely built machines, but very unreliable until the final PCIE models.

BTW the PCIE models had a special adapter for the wireless board (Apple 630-7054, 820-1830-A) that's worth a bunch because it was optional.

PS: The water cooled units tended to leak and kill the system.

lol indeed that is what made this into scrap, I still would take a million but the boards are a painful reminder of how much work this business can take so many screws and holders and so forth to lock it in tight

Yea, I hit my frustration level pretty quick with these........

Never seen one of those torn apart...

I had a G-5 come in last year.

Can honestly say it's the only breakdown that i ever did with a sawzall.

Chop saw is the best investment.
