Furthermore, there are new and refurbished PSU's available online. Reasons aside, there are many old iMacs still around with Power Supplies in excellent condition. I was fearful of connecting an new Intel NUC to an old PSU. They were only in fair to poor working condition.ģ. I had no idea of the PSU pinouts or operating function.Ģ. The two iSight builds I completed did not use the original iMac PSU. My three iMac G5 projects are linked below for reference. This thread will focus primarily on the iSight models of iMac PSU. Myself, I've built three G5 projects, only one of which (a non-iSight A1076 model) utilized the original Apple Power Supply. It comes as a result of some research and testing which in all honesty I wish I could've accomplished sooner.
With the growing interest in iMac G5 builds appearing on this forum (which is great to see!) I thought I would take the time to post some info which may prove helpful for upcoming mods. Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's Guide
