BiTRiP Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I'm thinking to buy a GigaByte X1600 PRO Silentpipe. Is this card fully working without any problems, after using Boris' patch? I mean also on DVI..... Thanks. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/27647-gigabyte-x1600xt-silentpipe/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrawneekaar Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I am also thinking about the card. I had a GigaByte 7600GT Silentpipe II before, excelent card for PC (gaming mostly), but unusable for OSX86 (no drivers for QE etc.). Now I am using an integrated 945G (also Gigabyte's mobo, check my signature). If I buy one, I will let you know, however, it is not in the nearest future I am afraid. T.

BiTRiP Posted September 30, 2006 Author Share Posted September 30, 2006 Since a week of 2 I have this card now. And I love it! It's fully working. I didn't had to do anything after installing 10.4.7 with the boris-patch in it. QE/CI, DVI, sleep etc....all working! If have added this card to the wiki page as well.

I want to give the Gigabyte Card a try but in your Posting youre talking about a 1600 XT and your Signature says its a 1600PRO...so which one is the SUPER Card that works so good with all funktions...

mdg Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Can you post a link to the: "I didn't had to do anything after installing 10.4.7 with the boris-patch in it" 10.4.7 you speak of? Is there a full build that I can just load, which includes patch for this card? Just got my gear in the mail, and excited to get it working. I have a really bad 10.4.6 build, which took me like a half of dozen times to install on a Intel 945 with Pentium D820. I just got a Pentium D 950, Intel 945GTP and Giga X160XT, and I would like to only try to install OSX one time Thank in advance for the link....

BiTRiP Posted October 9, 2006 Author Share Posted October 9, 2006 I have edited my first post where I said XT instead of PRO. It's the PRO card! To get it working I used 10.4.7 from JaS, this has the boris patch included during setup.
