LIVEitup472 Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Hey, I'm new to this forum and OSx86 as well. I've been talking to some friends of mine who have built their own computers but none of them a Hackintosh. I'm trying to future proof this machine so they put together a list of hardware for me that they said would last. I wanted to get some opinions on whether it would work, and if it does, to what extent. Hardware: Mobo- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16813128422 GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD5 Graphics- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814102898 SAPPHIRE Vapor-X 100283VX-2L Radeon HD 5770 Memory- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820231436 G.SKILL Ripjaws X + Turbulence II Series 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 CPU- http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDet...st=Combo.641024 Intel Core i7-970 Gulftown 3.2GHz LGA 1366 130W Six-Core Desktop Processor If I have broken some kind of forum rule, please tell me. Also, if this would work on the current version of OS X then that would also be fine.

gr4fk Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 If your looking to purchase soon then consider sandy bridge look at my sig and the progress build this is a good system to look at if you need more go for the i7 2600k cheaper then the 970 but probably getting near the same performance you may wanna go for the full atx board though unless your planning on putting it into a mac pro case alternatively.....wait for lga 2011 and ivy bridge Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/257110-osx86-on-this-hardware/#findComment-1685154 Share on other sites More sharing options...
