I have successfully installed OSX on the following hardware:

 

Gigabyte GA-M51GM-S2g Motherboard

*Marvell 88E116 Gigabit Lan(nForce 430 chipset)

*Realteck ALC883

AMD Athlon X2 4100+ CPU

Seagate 500 GB Sata Hard Drive

HP Quadro FX 1700

*Chose EFI String DVI/DVI

*Have not tested Quartz

Dell 15" Monitor

Microsoft Wireless Multimedia Keyboard 1.1

Microsoft Standard Wireless Optical Mouse

*Installed the IntelliPoint Software

Lite-On Combo SOHC 4836K

Lite-On Combo SOHC 4836V

 

 

I used the 10.6.1. with 10.6.2 Update from the Hazard DVD. I went with a minimal installation...just what is required to install on an AMD system. To enable the sound I chose the ALC883 Patch. To enable the Quadro 1700 I chose the NVenabler kext. I chose the SMBios 667 Patch. Did not chose any sata drivers (running the drive in IDE mode in the BIOS). Under wired section I did not install any drivers. I have no wifi device in this computer. The Marvell 88E1116(nForce 430 chipset) was autodetected and autoconfigured with DHCP. No Kext needed. I did not chose any USB fixes. No DDST patching required or EFI string added with OSX86tools except as noted above. Working in full 64-bit mode. Chose the RTC patch to fix the CMOS reset problem.
