I had a few g5's and tried differnet things to cool them down
what worked was a cut like in the picture below (found on macrumors) - but without the extra fan installed and since the heat spot is in the area of the hdd - i replaced the 3.5 hdd with a 2.5hdd - the 2.5 fits diagonal in the left corner in the hdd compartment - directly beside the fan - and the heat spot is no longer on the hdd
