Looking for MacPro Case

eazzy · 11:14 AM

Im looking to buy just the case as I wanna build it overtime since i cant afford to buy all together. I have resources to get all the other parts I just cant find a place who has them for sale. Would love if it comes with a motherboard.

Please let me know if you know of a site that sells them.

macpalace.com carries most anything. They have cases, CPU coolers, and logic boards. Among other things.

Mac parts tend to be expensive, so be prepared. The case will be ~$290, the logic board over $700, $102 per CPU cooler, and don't forget the PSU, cable harnesses, and probably a few other odds and ends.

For a part or two, it might be plausible, as I don't know what resources you refer to. Personally, this won't be the way to go if you need quite a bit of stuff. Way too expensive.

If you do need quite a bit, try looking on eBay/Craigs List for a "Sold As/For Parts" type of deal, as that may be a better way to get some of the odd parts like the case, wiring harness, PSU, CPU coolers, etc. Just an idea anyway.

Good luck.
