[QUOTE="baggss, post: 1506697, member: 6762"] Can the case take an Intel board? Possibly, but I'm not sure what the point is here. Face it, the G5 is an old machine and all of the G5 towers had issues. My Quad had similar issues to yours and I never figured out what the cause was. Wasn't a coolant leak, wasn't the power supply but in the end it became un-usable. As for software, the answer is some might, most won't. PPC support was dropped with 10.6 and you can't really even run it in emulation anymore on newer Macs. Time to come to the 21st century. [/QUOTE]
