I gave in and put a fan in my cube (now it glow's blue)

[Mord]

sorry about the blurryness

 

[Mr. Anderson]

Interesting - you should take more pics - what does it look like from the side?

And why did you need to add the fan?

[Dreadnought]

Cool! Know I want one just for the coolfactor!

 

[Mord]

it's for my dual prosessor and 7200rpm HD and my radeon 9000

 

[Mord]

a better pic

 

[haiggy]

That is sweet.

Now I am not one to go mod a beautiful computer, but that is pretty darn cool.

PS. its spelled dyslexics

As soon as I get out of college in 2008 or whenever the heck I finish and get a real job, I'm going to indulge my two life long desires to pimp out both a G4 Cube, and a DeLorean. Both WAAAAYYY ahead of their time.

grr

 

[g30ffr3y]

it looks like its floating in a mysterious haze...

rad.

 

[Macmaniac]

I want one! I wish Apple made something like it, except a little more expandable, and with a video card you could upg without having to worry about space. Nice job!

 

[blue&whiteman]

very very cool.

 

[Angelus]

That is really cool.
What kinda dual processors can you get for the cube?

 

[Mr. Anderson]

Very nice! I'm curious as to the speed of the machine now - didn't know you could get duals in a cube

D

 

[realityisterror]

wow! that does look sweet!
personally i would have gone for a more light blue/almost white color, but who am i?
that's what some people like to call "pimping"... i don't really get it though

so, what are the specs??? xbench???

reality

 

[bennetsaysargh]

that's awesome. could you get the light to change colors? that's be even cooler!

 

[Koodauw]

Yes. I too would like to see the specs on this thing. Any way you could post them for us? a DP cube is way cool, esp with that blue light!

 

[Mord]

i got a dual 450MHz modual from OWC at the bargain price of $129 (£65) and i'm still going through the testing period i followed the Xlr8yourmac guide http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/cube/dual_g4_cube/dual_g4_cube.html the blue light if from a blue led fan being this one: http://eshop.macsales.com/Catalog_Item.cfm?ID=6479&Item=GIGGCDFANCUBE

the specs are

dual 450MHz g4
7200RPM 120 gig HD
radeon 9000
1.2 gigs of ram
15" apple studio display

 

[Mr. Anderson]

Dual 450, eh, well, better than my single 450 at home, but not all that zippy I imagine. Do they have faster dual boards available for it? I have an original Sawtooth G4 and I can't add a dual to it - I was very upset when I found out, I could have got a good deal on a dual 1 GHz.....

[Mord]

powerlogix is working for a dual for the cube but that will take a while the fastest card available now is a single 1.35GHz g4

 

[thejazzman10]

xBench??? Wouldn't the cube be more like a.....xStool?

 

[Mr. Anderson]

powerlogix is working for a dual for the cube but that will take a while the fastest card available now is a single 1.35GHz g4

ha, well the price for a single 1.35 GHz g4 isn't worth doing the upgrade...I'm just going to get a new G5
