Liquid cooled G5's sometimes leak and the liquid is corrosive to the
case and the motherboard. It could be that the system you are looking
at buying had that problem some time in the past and the owner took
components out of one G5 and put them into the clean case of another G5.
Buyer Beware! Make sure you are getting what you are paying for and
ask the seller why they do not match.
