Looking for hardware advice

[Obsidian1]

So a while back I made a post asking for help installing Leopard on my PC.

 

The reason was that I need Mac for a project in Uni and installing it on my PC is a far cheaper option than renting or buying a real mac.

I'm not exactly a newbee to installing OS's, regularly wiping my drives for a clean installation of either Windows XP / Windows 7 or Linux Ubuntu, depending on the project at hand.

 

verdant tried to help me out, but in the end it seemed like the problem was my motherboard and that it would be very difficult to get Mac running on my motherboard.

So, this is a week later down the line. I still need mac, and after having tried all other options (borrowing a real Mac from friends etc etc) I'm getting rather desparate.

 

For the past month I've been upgrading my PC, got a new processor, new graphics card, new ram, soundcard, the lot. But I have neglected my MoBo entirely, as the one I have now works for what I do.

 

I figure I may aswell get a new MoBo NOW (While I have the excuse of Uni ) And actually do my Uni work, rather than let it slide and fall into a bottomless pit of failing. I've had a little look round on the internet, and on the OSx86Project wiki at the individual components bit, but I was wondering if anyone could help me out and give me a few MoBo options that will definatly work.

 

My Current PC Specs:

 

ASRock 4CoreDual-VSTA MoBo (VIA PT880 Ultra Chipset)

Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 2.66Ghz processor (SIW tells me it's SSE2 SSE3 and SSE4.1 compatible)

2x Corsair DDR2 1Gb RAM (Dual Channel)

Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 3650 512MB

Boot HDD: 80GB Maxtor (PATA IDE)

Data HDD: 500GB Maxtor (PATA IDE atm, but has SATA capabilities)

22" Widescreen main display

20" Widescreen secondary display

 

So, I'm looking for a MoBo, better than the ASRock 4CoreDual-VSTA:

Preferably the ATX formfactor, though my case does support other formfactors.

Socket 775

IDE and SATA capabilities.

PCI-e x16

DDR2 slots

USB2.0

 

And obviously, the big factor in this is that Mac has to be able to run on it.

 

Thanks in advance!
