Hello dear insanes,

 

I think this topic has come up for some times, but in my research on this forum and the wiki, I didn't succeed in finding a solution.

 

My aim is to build a hackintosh which will be used only for audio applications (Pro Tools, Logic, Sequoia, Pyramix); I managed to find all components apart from a video card; my research included silentpcreview.com and buildsilentpc.com as well, but I couldn't find any satisfying matches with the compatibility lists.

 

So, here we go, the components already chosen:

 

Prozessor INTEL Core i7-920, 2,66GHz, Quad-Core

 

CPU cooler Zalman CNPS9900 LED

 

Mainboard Gigabyte GA EX58 UD5

 

Case Antec P183

 

HD WD Caviar Green 1TB

 

optical drive Samsung SH-S223L

 

8 GB of corsair DHX CL9

 

PSU Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2

 

 

After some days of research I would tend to the following video card:

 

Asus Extreme N9600GT

 

 

But I am not at all certain if this is compatible with the rest. If you have any suggestions I would really appreciate this.

 

Ah, I'd like to install Snow Leopard on this Hackintosh.

 

If you've got any advice concerning the components apart of the video card, I would of course be glad about it as well.

 

 

Thanks a lot for your help. Kidnest regards,

 

Hannes
