TheGoog Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 I am currently running OSx86 on my AMD64 Venice system and have everything but my network adapter and my ATi card working (obviously). But I am now ready to build a new OSx86 *only* machine and am wondering if this Shuttle barebones mobo would work with sound and networking. It has the GMA900 chip, so thats a defenite. But its the rest I am unsure of. Thanks for any help! link: Shuttle XPC SB83G5M Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/1653-shuttle-xpc-sb83g5m-will-this-work/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron21 Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Where the hell can I buy a shuttle SB83G5M or SB83G5C? I looked everywhere and still can't find a place to buy one?

TheGoog Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 The smaller pc shops I deal with seem to be able to order just about anything you could ask for. So try some smaller reputable shops in your area. You could also just try a google search for that part number and see what comes up as far as online stores go. Right now I just want to find out if the mobo in there will have full support lan and audio wise. Even if lan doesnt work, I can still add a compatible network card. So that just leaves audio being the main concern.

TheGoog Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 Sad thing is NewEgg has no offerings for us Canadian folk. But atleast you Yanks got some good things down south.

cyrana Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Since it has 915G, you should at least get QE and CI support, but the rest is a bit up for grabs... never know.

andrewburnet Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I run the Shuttle XPC SB83G5M at home, and I've got full hardware support on it. The only thing I added to it was a Netgear WG311T which 10.4.6 sees as an Airport card (after changing the NetworkInterfaces.plist file to use en1 instead of en0) I think you'll be happy with the results using the SB83G5M. Cheers Andrew. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/1653-shuttle-xpc-sb83g5m-will-this-work/#findComment-177511 Share on other sites More sharing options...
