MacApprentice Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Perfect setup, I got the same mobo, works nice The celeron is maybe a bit slow for FCP. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11224-hardware-check/#findComment-70214 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabaczka Posted March 6, 2006 Author Share Posted March 6, 2006 The only reason I picked the celeron was b/c it has a 50 dollar rebate now from 90.. so if I want to upgrade later I am only out 40 bucks..

tabaczka Posted March 6, 2006 Author Share Posted March 6, 2006 Can anyone confirm that FCP will run on this mobo with the integrated graphics? And would a 400 Watt power supply be enough?

Wayland Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Can anyone confirm that FCP will run on this mobo with the integrated graphics? And would a 400 Watt power supply be enough? I can confirm that the MB is compatible and everything looks as it should. The processor does look a little slow, but as long as you have sse3, you should be good to go. -Kc Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11224-hardware-check/#findComment-70376 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabaczka Posted March 7, 2006 Author Share Posted March 7, 2006 Thanks, I am planning on upgrading the processor with time.. money is hard to come by for this 16 year old.. Hopefully the 400 Watt will do.. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11224-hardware-check/#findComment-70383 Share on other sites More sharing options...
