pookothebear Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Hey guys!! I've been lurking around OSx86 for a while now and have finally decided to build my very own hackintosh. The reason why I'm building one is because I like the OSX operating system but not the components that are offered with the iMac offered by Apple. I'm basically looking for a computer that can dual-boot both Windows 7 and Mac OSX, for daily uses like gaming, internet surfing, and some occasional video work on the side. I've decided to follow Bidmead's guide on building a Sandy Bridge Hackintosh and was wondering what your guys' advice was on using updated components such as GPU, Processor, Motherboard, etc. What I've put together are these things: -Intel H57 HDMI Micro ATX Intel Motherboard -3.4 GHZ Quad-Core Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge Processor -ATI Radeon HD 6870 1GB I have tried searching for compatibility results for these components and haven't been able to find any for sure results. So I turn to you guys! Let me know what you think!! Thanks!

aufa333 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 dont ever get MB from Intel ,intel is only for CPU ,get Asus or GigaByte instead ATI/Nvidia ,all the new high end cards like the one u've chosen have some probs but dont worry there is always a fix. as general idea ,u wont find a guide with the exact components u want but u search them one by one and u will get ur answers.
