Julian0o Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Hi all there, i plan to build a Power MacPro with i7 6-Core 3,33 Ghz and 16GB of Ram. For graphics i like a HD 5770 or 5870 But wich motherboard is the best to use with 6 Ram Slots and easy to install? I read about the Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 but its not buyable now. Thanks for help.

SomniusX Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I'd like an answer to that too, cause I'm planning to upgrade to i5/i7 soon, plus I'd like to be a gigabyte cause of the best experience I had so far with ep45-ud3lr.. So, anybody? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/235590-best-motherboard-for-power-hackintosh-pro/#findComment-1571780 Share on other sites More sharing options...

dR435t4 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Hey, i would go for the Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R; check out this awesome blog: CustoMac Pro The guy really knows what he's doing... anyway that should get you started... if you have any more questions, and you cant find the answer here; you can always go to the forum on that site...

Augusto.rc Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 If you get the GA-X58A-UD3R check which revision you get. For what I've heard on the forum, rev 1 is more stable with osx. I own a rev 2 boards and I get a KP every now and then. I also had to customize the DSDT, as it's processor dependant. Good luck building it!
