Hi Guys,

I'm new to all this hackintosh stuff so apologies if im not doing the right think here but I have been reading through the wiki's and posts and think I might have a spec which will work as a hackintosh.

Could someone have a look and let me know if this build will work? I've been looking for a UK basket type post but can only find US ones.


I would like something that needs little hacking if possible.

I've spec'ed this from www.ebuyer.com
ASUS P5K PRO iP35 Socket 775 Motherboard - QuickFind 145363
EVGA 7200GS 256MB 64bit DDR2 Graphics Card - QuickFind 131123
Intel Quad Q6600 (2.4GHz 1066MHz) Socket 775 Processor - QuickFind 131950
OCZ 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 800Mhz/PC2-6400 Memory - QuickFind 146049
Maxtor ST3410000340AS 1TB SATA300 7200rpm HDD - QuickFind 141472
Pioneer DVR-215DBK 20X SATA DVD±RW DL Drive - QuickFind 140649

What do you think?


Thanks,
Dom

I think it'll work nicely! smile.gif

But I would suggest buying a better GFX card...
For instance an Asus 8400gs - QuickFind 131419
Better and cheaper! biggrin.gif

Been using a (MSI) 8400gs myself and I'm very happy with it!
All resolutions and QE+CI with nvkush or nvinject.


Or a GF 8500: Leadtek 8500GT - Quickfind 127448

Good luck!
