panzaman Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Hi Guys, I am quite new to the OSX x86 experience, I have managed to install Leo4All 10.5.4 on my PC and everything works fine (Sound/lan/Sata) apart from the graphic card a GeCube HD3850, I have tried different packages, different Natit, adding it to the EFI list etc, I have even tried to install V 10.5.5 drivers, still corrupt video when I "supposedly" get to the OSX desktop, I can boot fine in -X mode and able to delete the relevant kexts but since I really want to get this thing working, I was wondering if anybody could help me in suggesting a budget PCIE graphic card either nVidia or ATI that will certainly work in OSX with full support of QE, I don't need it to play games in OSX just run the os and the few application that need QE acceleration. Thanks a lot. My Specs: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ MSI K9A2 4gigs DDR2 Gecube HD3850 512mb OnBoard LAN and SOUND 80gigs SATA Hitachi HD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick14 Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=107526 or a ATI 8800Gs they are ¨cheap now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agrajag Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 My impression is that the most reliable cards would be a PCIe 7300gt 256mb or an 8800gt 256mb. Many other cards work of course but these are very well supported and inexpensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzaman Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 ..thanks a lot for the suggestions, I think I will be picking up a 7300 from a local shop they seem to be around £30 ($70) in my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
