Apple mac pro power supply plus#
My design, while being perhaps quite hideous, will muffle 4 x Raid 0 10k drives plus other Sata and firewire drives as well as the 2 x DVD burners, while keeping everything very, very cool. I won't be using the Mac Pro case of course. FB-Dimms are far cheaper now than even a year ago. Xeon CPU's can be easily sourced used I think. One needs to know the voltages that the motherboard needs so it can be replicated by another (perhaps modified) power supply. Everything else that I can think of is pretty generic. If one can get a Mac Pro motherboard ($480 now) the additional headaches are the memory riser cards (around $90 each from most places) and the power supply. Tell us the juicy details, The New Guy!!! The cause of the dead PSU wasn't you installing extra fans, was it? You see? Not such an easy little search project after all! :)ĭo you really expect there to be a wealth of dead Mac Pros being parted out on eBay? I'm looking for a used one and the specs on it. Anybody can go to Apple and plop down $300 for the real deal. He just needs to open the computer and get the correct make and model #. Here it is so you can see for yourself, though: Don't get excited, though, because it's for a Pro-Mac (as in a brand name or manufacturer) power supply, not a Mac Pro. I can't recall whether they were selling new or used items, but they included the specs. I Googled "Mac Pro power suplly" before I posted earlier, since I don't make it a point of telling people to Google for information I know they won't find that way.

Well the Mac Pro motherboard is much like a server motherboard. I have no idea what that's supposed to mean. Since its a server board you'd think it couldn't be that difficult to power. The Ebay link posted by another has been removed.just my luck! :) Not an easy thing to research. Once I know that, I might be able to use an ATX power supply to power the beast.Īpple wants $300 - which is pretty ridiculous. Specs means what are the exact voltage and current ratings on all of the power supplies' outputs.

By "specs" I don't mean the power consumption or voltage outputs. Where? I've just been to several more sites and there is nothing useful. Its not easy - as I originally said.ĭon't make it a point of telling people to Google for information I know they won't find that way. I tried again adding "replacement" "-g4" "-powermac" to filter out the irrelevant hits and still came up with nothing. However if you had used "mac pro" "power supply" it might help a bit. Well that would have given you almost nothing relevant. I Googled "Mac Pro power supply" before I posted earlier, Couldn't find a single seller or specs anywhere.
