d3xmeister Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Hello, I'm thinking to upgrade my 4 year old hackintosh. I have to chose betewwn a few models of Gigabyte motherboards. Some have UEFI and some only have BIOS. Do you think I'll have any benefit from a motherboard with UEFI integrated ?

Dr. Hurt Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 For the mean time having UEFI won't make any difference because as of this moment Chameleon 2 does not support native UEFI booting. It'll boot using legacy (BIOS) mode on the UEFI motherboard. Don't know when (or if) Chameleon will support UEFI, what extra benefits it'll have.
