DeadSinn Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) Hi all. I just made a new configuration ( only list ) for my new pc/hakintosh. I have already checked for the compatibility of the components on the wiki... but i want your opinion. MainBoard: Gigabyte GA-965P-DQ6 Processor: Intel Core 2 duo 4300 ( i dont take the 6300 becouse the 4300 is more overclockable ) Ram: Kit 2*1Gb PC2-6400 CrossFire Heat-Spreader CAS5 (GX22GB6400DC) Graphic Card: Sapphire X1950XT 256MB GDDR3 PCI-E DUAL DVI VIVO Dissipator: Zalman CNPS 9700-Led PSU: Enermax Liberty 500watt HD: Barracuda 7200.10 320GB 16MB-Cache SATA II (ST3320620AS) Monitor: Asus MW221U How is this configuration ? Can osx work great on this configuration with qe/ci without big problems ? I have to change something ? Thanks Edited March 13, 2007 by DeadSinn Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/45137-hardware-check/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
nargot Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 i can't vouch for the graphics card, i encountered problems with an Radeon X1600 Pro It could be a problem with the board and ATI cards, maybe its just bad luck. Mobo works great. all the rest doesn't affect OSX. Cause you want to overclock and i assume you want it to go a hard as possible, make sure your RAM (i'm sure you have already checked) will overclock >900 mhz reliably.

nargot Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 i can get the X1600 to work on my HTPC no problems, just not on the GA-965P-DQ6 board.. I dont know if anyone else has had this problem and have no explanation of why it failed in my setup, sorry. If anyone else has used an ATI card in their GA-965P-DQ6 could they reply Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/45137-hardware-check/#findComment-322617 Share on other sites More sharing options...
