Hooked it all up, after double checking then double checking again after a particularly strong cup of tea flicked the switch.

Luckily the pins slip on with a little resistance, which I think is a good thing.Īs intend to use the native (fully tested) PSU I followed another or dremeljunkie's guides and used Pin #14's 5V current to connect to the white wire of the PSU which enables the 24V required to power the backlight. The thickness of the 'Plating min - Mating' pin on 74320-1003 is 0.762µm compared to dremeljunkies' 0.051µm. After reviewing the data sheet the only difference is the thickness of the pins, I took a gamble as the suggested part wasn't available to me. Molex Part Number: 74320-1003 offers the almost exact same design (though it has unnecessary analog pins) as the part dremeljunkie suggests. First de-tour from 'the manual' that is dremeljunkie's website, I purchased a different DVI part: Last night I spent nearly 4 hours manipulating tiny TMDS pins from the native 20' LCD, soldering those teeny wires to resistors, separately preparing the native PSU. If only to formalise my notes for future alterations. Original I/O: x3 USB 2.0 | Firewire 800 | Ethernet NIC | Native Pro Speaker SupportĪnyway– thought it would be worth posting as I follow other's mods.

powering a mini-ITX plus LCD and Backlight? Also, mini-ITX may be OTT for my bottom line: low power consumption. things have changed it seems) I have a DFI Lanparty P55 T36 sitting around - but I think the power requirements would be too much for the native PSU.

I'd also like a firewire 800 port!Īs for a motherboard (I haven't built a Hackintosh before and haven't tinkered with motherboards etc for 10 years. Furthermore I'll attempt to re-work the existing USB, NIC and Audio Lines including that genius hack by wingworm that allows Native Pro Speaker support. Hoping to use the native PSU to power the native 20' screen (LCD +Backlight) as well as a very low power consuming mobo (as per spong_jojo's mod), cpu (with integrated graphics). I began with a fully functional iMac G4 USB 2.0 20' Model, working pretty well actually.

Hello, inspired by the many outstanding mods on this board I thought I'd join in with a tried-and-tested iMac G4 modification built on the shoulders of giants. Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's Guide
