Griffwill Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 from what I'v heard, USB 3.0 is not supported at the moment because of the lack of native support, but I have read that a 3.0 port will operate as 2.0 until there is native support for it from apple.

Griffwill Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I wouldn't know what to tell you there, but from reading around, Gigabyte boards are very well supported. If you're thinking of upgrading just for the USB 3.0, just get a PCI card, they run about $40 right now. If you really want a new MB then you may as well sink the money into an 1156/i5 combo. I've seen gigabyte boards that have USB 3.0 and are fully running SL (minus the functionality of the 3.0).

Mayorc Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Well let's hope they do something for the 3.0 cause is really cool. For hachintosh purposes we should disable this from bios or it doesn't matter ?
