Yea, had to put the hardware together, then leak test, then install OS X, Win 7 and Ubuntu.
Then had to cut the back out of the G5 and replace it with a standard ATX MOBO and backplate.
Then had to get all the pipework to fit in the case with no kinks etc.

5 evenings, alot of swearing and a **** load of dremel cutting disks.

nice.. I am a amd guy.. because im cheap lolz... but i am starting to think whether ati/nvidia you need to buy expensive graphic card.. otherwise you get what you pay for.. cheap... cpu/mobo i think you can still get away with cheap parts.
