AGP Graphics in a Quicksilver

[beachycove]

Is it possible to transplant the guts of an AGP Graphics G4 into a Quicksilver case? Anyone tried this? I have a working AGP Graphics in a distressed case, and a dead QS with a nice case. Am not sure what differences there are....

I'm not sure if the boards are even the same size and have mounting holes in the same place.

The power supplies are different and I'm not sure one will physically fit in the case of the other. You will likely fry the motherboard if you attempt to use the wrong PSU.

Also the connecter for the front panel buttons might be different.

You might be able to transplant the handles, plastics, etc. from one case to the other.

Yeah. That was my thought as well.

However, the power button and speaker might pose an issue. Not that they wouldn't work, but that they'd probably look weird (the green/amber power button light might look strange being where a white button/light usually is).
