osxgus Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Hi All, I am finally getting the feeling that I should be upgrading my graphic card. The one that seems like it's worth the money is the Gigabyte HD 2600XT ( Details here: http://www.digitec.ch/ProdukteDetails2.asp...;Artikel=137606 ) - passive cooling (silent.. yay) - not too expensive - hackintosh compatible (should be doable!) I read cyclonefr's quickguide to make this work, but could someone who's actually done it write up a full guide for this? Here's the link to the files from the iMac graphic card updates: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/ima...reupdate10.html Here's what cyclonefr had to say about making it work: hey guys just so easy to make it work! edit the X2000.Kext with ur vendor id and product id, and remove ATINDRV for test. u should at least QE/CI in 1024. then try to tweak ATINDRV which should contains a new driver into the plugins directory = X2000 then modify like borisbadenov did for X1600. U should get full CEQI and switch resolution. If someone can throw together an easy guide i think it would help development enormously since this card is just coming on the market. cheers, G Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/60019-gigabyte-2600xt/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluejacky Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I have a Sapphire HD 2600XT. I'm waiting for the driver for a while, and it seems that we still need to wait. The driver pack from 1.0 update give me a grey screen. I think it should work after some modify. But I'm not the one can do it. Hope some can!
