That's my system, btw.

 

And Titan.kext works with a bit of hacking (I have an nForce4 chipset and both GeForce.kext and NVDANV40Hal.kext try to activate anything with nVidia's manufacturer number, 10de, as a video card). I now have full accel on my 7900GT CO.

 

And its a 2.2GHz Athlon 64, not a 3GHz.

 

Many many thanks to semthex, rufus, and everyone else involved in this. This is one great boost.

Its not ready for prime-time yet. There will be a release soon just wait because the current method is a pain in the ass.

 

Here's a few things I've noticed though:

 

The timing is off. The clock rolls back about 10 minutes per hour. So if its been on for an hour, its 10 minutes behind, two hours, 20 minutes, etc.

 

Also, this causes stuttering every 10 seconds or so in audio.

 

These are both timing issues that could be fixed though.

 

As far as anything else goes, OpenGL blows my mind. And its nice to not hear my 7900GT's jet of a fan anymore once OS X starts. Resolution switching is total fluid.

 

The audio thing is a tad annoying though and so is the clock.

Try setting your fsb with the boot option fsb=(yourfsbhere)

Okay... so it seems like the approximate right FSB for AMD would be your FSB divided by four and taking that result and adding it on top of your real FSB.

 

Example:

 

200/4 = 50. So you take 50 and add it on to 200 to make 250.

 

Adjust up and down from there. Its really close, at least on my system.
