pairustwo Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I'm building a new system and I started to wonder weather or not it would make a good hackentosh. I looked at the hardware and it seemed pretty close to the profile of an actual mac. my biggest question is the motherboard. Anyway, would you look at this build and see if it would run OSX86? GIGABYTE GV-NX73T256P-RH GeForce 7300GT video card Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Conroe 2.4GHz LGA 775 Processor WINTEC AMPX 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) EVGA 122-CK-NF66-T1 LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 650i Ultra ATX Intel Motherboard I noticed that some of the nForce chipsets had trouble with SATA and LAN. Any word on this particular chipset? At any rate I have a belkin PCI LAN card that I was using in my G3 that worked with OSX. I'm sure I could use that. Let me know if I have a rig on my hands that would run the latest OS X. Thanks for your help.

Guest Ramm Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Don't get a motherboard with the nVidia chipset unless it is specifically listed in the Wiki.
