1,1 internals to 5,1 internals

Hello, I was recently gifted a 2006 1,1 mac pro. Now I plan on using it to edit video via adobe and understand that the 32 bit processor is a bit sluggish. I was wondering if anyone knows if its possible to put 5,1 internals into my 1,1 case. I would like to keep it looking as factory as possible but want the better upgrades and be able to run the newest OS without a bunch of software mods.

I commend your tenacity!

Sadly, this is not really doable without costing more than just getting the newer version of system (5.1). The only thing Apple kept was the case!

Is it possible? I mean yes, anything’s possible, there are hackintosh builds using Mac Pro/PowerMac cases. But it’s not a drop-in replacement from a 2006 board to a 2012 board, if that’s what you’re asking. Nothing is going to be reusable from the 1,1 internals, you’d need some parts from a 5,1 case anyway, and at the very least you’re gonna need some drilling and filing, maybe even welding to mount the board. and to have access to the IO ports .
