Welcome to the club;-)

#1 concern - handle it ever so gingerly! Never press on the PPC chip.
#2 concern - HEAT! Make sure the fan works properly, and the case it is in has proper ventilation.

What kind of system is it going in?

comon misconception, having the case open a computer will not reduce the heat on the mobo and chips,


Not necessarily. All things being equal in conditioned enviorment, a computer will usually run cooler with the case off. In an unconditioned enviorment you would be correct, it may even run hotter with the case open.
