Other than the fact you’d need to chop two posts to get a secure spot to keep the board in, you can actually do it all without a new screen if you wanted to. Just need a driver board for the og lcd or buy a new screen for it.
@@miguelmcnamara8405 someone put an M1 Mac mini in an g4 cube and was left with half of the space being empty. The body of the iMac G4 is probably big enough that you could straight up put an M1 Mac mini in there without even removing the shell?

Change the disk drive for an fast read and write blu ray drive (And give the Ethernet port 10Gbit capability while you are at it) and you are all set. Maybe source an compatible 4K screen as cherry on top although 1080 is already pretty good for an retrofit.
All m1 boards are relatively small, you just have to find the one with th right features. it'd probably pose less of a thermal issue as well because of the low TDP the m1 has.

What an excellent job!

Great Job! One of my favorite designed Macs...EVER! After watching the video, I find myself on Ebay looking for a cheap 17" iMac G4 wanting to put a M1 mini in!
I still had the same unit in my home.. and it still works hehe... it was my late Dad's latest iMAC before he died in 2005... and we just cannot bear to be apart from it...
If you are interested in improving your design, I think some devices don't allow the use of extensions (hdmi, usb, etc.), I think you could unsolder the plugs from the motherboard, solder wires onto it instead and route them to the plugs in the back. Also when the glue retaining you plugs breaks, I suggest you try jb weld. There's also some free space to gain with this power supply situation. I feel kind of sorry for giving you suggestions, especially as I wouldn't have put myself into such a project, like all those other people complaining. I think what you already did is fantastic. I'm really hoping to see new videos from you in the future. Improvements on this project or a totally new version would be great.
you have the "exhaust" fan on backwards (it's blowing INTO the case) and I would think the whole things gets REALLY HOT because you have all the vent holes in the very bottom blocked with you 'logic board' (the clear sheet of plastic the motherboard is mounted to) you NEED TO make sure air can flow in from all those hole, and the top fan's sticker (in the center of the fan... what you would think of as the 'back' of the fan) NEEDS TO be pointing UP and OUT of the top..... PLUS you need to get as much air on to the processor heatsink and fan as you can.... otherwise.... THIS THING IS AMAZING!!! I AM SO IMPRESSED!!!!! WOW!!! EXCELLENT WORK!!!!
Truly AMAZING!!! I like the 17" running big sur! what a great job you did! I would love a 17" imac running big sur,something about them compared to the new machines they were just better it seems! you did an amazing job I don't know how long it took in real time BUT I watched every minute of your video. THANK YOU!!
amazing project, say what you will about apples hardware, their design is hard to beat. I've gotta say, it's probably would have been way easier to use an aftermarket 17 inch laptop screen rather than a macbook lcd, you can find them in higher resolutions and they're brighter, cheaper... keep it up.
Damn, you beat me to it!!! I got my G4 iMac a week ago. Still speccing things out. The display on mine is cracked so looking to retrofit a 4k into it. You've done a really good job. Well done!!!!!
Good thing there are things called temperature probes to monitor such things and set automation whether limiting resources, increasing fan speed, or full shutdown.
I was thinking the same, man. Lmao. Make a plug, fiberglass, same matte white, along with larger screen.... ya know what? Why not just design your own in the first place now that I think of it?
@@rp6782 i watch tons of this kind of videos on my iphone with way less ads in them without having youtube premium… when uploading videos that are longer than 8, 9 minutes you can choose yourself to add ‘mid rolls’. You choose the amount, the placement, etc… standard uploads are mostly at the begining and end of each upload… so no its not “my fault” for not choosing premium… I dont mind for any youtuber to make money at all, but my point was that it still has to be watchable for those without premium or adblock options (because of an iphone)
Fantastic work! I have one question: Why did you place the LCD PSU inside the iMac? Couldn't the 5 or 12 volts required by the LCD driver have been taken from the Pico PSU instead?
@@yosukerechain2000 This is true, but I'm asking why they chose to use the adapter, not how they actually did it. Theoretically, DC power could easily be extracted from the pico PSU rather than placing a bulky AC power adapter inside the iMac housing. In the video, I noticed that the adapter took up quite a lot of space inside the already cramped computer, so I was just curious why they chose to build it this way. Maybe there was not enough wattage overhead in the pico PSU to handle the additional load, but if this were the case, I think the computer would be experiencing some other serious problems anyway...
I totaly love your work, thanks for sharing the video! How about thermal issues, are there any? Everything looks packed soooo tight, and the power adaptor in the middle of everything looks like a potential problem on hot summer days.... Still, you've done a great job with some simple and available solutions, I like it very much! Respect man!
I really think the M1 Mac would have fit in there, you'd save all the space on the wifi card. Plus with a bit of electrical work, you could have saved on that second power cord. But either way, great work!

Cool project! Mind you that instead of the pci-e wifi adapter, you could've gone for the compatible ngff card that you could've replaced within the provided factory housing. Any Broadcom 94352Z would've worked, both Dell and Lenovo variants. Nevertheless, really nice work and an awesome build.
Or just usb dongle which is better compatability with hackintosh and would avoid interference all together.

Excellent job! Looks amazing. The iMac G4 looks so cool - a modernised one really is a dream 🤩
Подключить 3 разъёма USB через хаб это реально боль
It looks stunning with the widescreen monitor!
Очень интересный проект!
Из минусов - экран довольно искажается под углами
Из дополнений - можно ли поставить тонкий слой multitouch на экран?
На алике продаются сенсоры, но по размеру 16:10 17" мне кажется фиг найдешь. На маках сенсоров и небыло никогда. Больше глаз режет усб хаб и вайфай плата на разерах, при том, что в материнке полно усб портов и своя беспроводная карта.. зачем городить лишнее, что может потом отхлебнуть. Разве что хакинтош поддерживает только такой вайфай.. но усб - все равно глаз режет))
Хотя для хакинтоша больно много заморочек.. может сюда бы влезла плата мак-мини.
i can't believe that this laptop are still working like charm
