SpeedfreaK Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Hello all, I'm a happy os x86 user, but I want to speed it up! I searched several sites (also the wiki) but all the tips 'n tricks i found, were for the 10.4.1 installation. Are there any patches or tricks to speed it a bit up? Thanks for my system specs, see my signature Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35226-speed-up-your-hackintosh/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac OSX Coder Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 what do you mean "speed up" Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35226-speed-up-your-hackintosh/#findComment-250614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedfreaK Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 Well, it's fast, but the GUI isn't so responsive as xp. So maybe there are some patches to install so that the whole system runs faster. (like the maxxxus patch for 10.4.1 on SSE2) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35226-speed-up-your-hackintosh/#findComment-250670 Share on other sites More sharing options...
phor2zero Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Perhaps you haven't updated your sig, but it says you're still running 10.4.6 with macvidia. Upgrading to 10.4.8 (8.8.1 kernel) with Titan/Natit would enable CI/QE. That would significantly speed up your system. Alternatively, if you've already done that, you can try enable Q2DE and disabling BeamSync.

CoolBits Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Removing caches from time to time also helps in /Library/Caches/* /system/Library/Caches/* ¨/Library/Caches/* at the same time remove kextcaches... and reboot... On next boot it will take longer till all caches again but after that it will be a bit faster. Remove AppleHWsensor.kext if you still have it in extension also helps a bit... and update_prebinding -root / -force also helps if you messed with some frameworks... Try that Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35226-speed-up-your-hackintosh/#findComment-250680 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Upgrading to 10.4.8 (8.8.1 kernel) with Titan/Natit would enable CI/QE. That would significantly speed up your system. Might work, except an older card with small amount of VRAM - perhaps a video upgrade would help with snappy. you can try enable Q2DE and disabling BeamSync.

SpeedfreaK Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 Yeah i can do that, but i have SSE2, so i have to wait until the new kernel is out beta and open for public to install Natit/Titan, or is it possible with the old kernel?

SpeedfreaK Posted December 9, 2006 Author Share Posted December 9, 2006 Somebody knows the answer? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35226-speed-up-your-hackintosh/#findComment-251345 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Titan has been used on old kernel to get resolution switching but no QE/CI. Some think it is speedier. http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=31816 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35226-speed-up-your-hackintosh/#findComment-251366 Share on other sites More sharing options...
