Phoenix2058 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Lools like you are good to go, but can you post more infos about the GPU? or may decide to use an external one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlf Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 You need to find a different processor. The GPU is in the CPU. The G840 brings the Intel HD 2000 which does not have support on the Mac. Intel HD 3000 does but I don't know which CPU's support that. You need to do more research. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowky Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 I will use GPU with motherboard about chipset Intel GMA HD ( I don't know about integrated graphics ). Do it make a diffrence? This is the best CPU in his price and I pity him. Later I intend buy hd5770. Should I look for intel i3 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlf Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The motherboard Intel GMA HD doesn't have a GPU. The GPU comes from the processor or an add-on card. The motherboard according to the specs "Supports Intel® HD Graphics 2000/3000;". No where does it say that it has integral graphics. It is the processor that supplies the HD Graphics processor and the processor you have chosen supplies HD2000. You will be very disappointed when you buy the hardware and find this out.

rlf Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The i3 will supply HD 3000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowky Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 I have a certain price of all hardware. In USD about 88$ for CPU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlf Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Read the specs of the cpu carefully - some i3 are HD 2000 and others are HD 3000. You wouldn't want to get the wrong one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowky Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 So I have to change my list in first post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlf Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 You can do what you want. As I have said before, the processor you specified will only provide Intel HD 2000 which is not support by Mac OS X. There are a couple of Core i3 processors that provide Intel HD 3000 which is supported by Lion. The i3 processor is more expensive. Or you can buy an add-on graphics card. It is your choice.
