Espionage724 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 It's been a while since I really messed with OS X, but I recently setup a pretty decent Intel machine, and was interested in giving it a try. I use an ASRock Fatal1ty H97 Killer motherboard with an Intel i5-4670K CPU, and a MSI R7850 Power Edition 2GD5/OC GPU. Is it possible to natively-run OS X with such hardware? I imagine the CPU and GPU are fine, but the motherboard has be concerned. I haven't done any searching myself, so please forgive me if there's some thread somewhere with instructions for that particular motherboard or something (although if I understand right, that motherboard is relatively new to the market).

Espionage724 Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Thanks for the links! I managed to get a hold of a Mavericks 10.9.2 install image, set it up in VMware, download 10.9.3 from the App Store, and get it copied to a flash drive, along with setting up Clover. I'm installing it currently, but so far there wasn't any issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
