RoyaRandom Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I am currently planning to buy a new VGA and my choices are the 8800 GTS (G92) and the 9800 GTX+. I know that the 9800 GTX+ is better at default, but I've also heard that the 8800 GTS can be easily turned to a 9800 GTX+ with a little clocking. In terms of support, I've read that the 8800 GTS is fully compatible and can be easily installed via EFIStudio without any additional kext. I do not know much about the 9088 GTX+'s compatibily, but I know that EFIStudio doesn't support it. Im trying to keep my Hackintosh as "Mac" as possible, thus eliminating as many additional kexts as possible. Please help me decide. Thanks.

RoyaRandom Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 On a different note, I was wondering is the Hackintsoh is compatible with PC2 8500 (1066) Memories? Thanks.
