fleisch Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Hi Everybody! Got my system up and running with Mac OS X 10.4.9 Hardware: Intel Core 2 Duo 6400 Asrock 775 Dual VSTA Mobo with 2 GB DDR2 RAM ATI X850 XT PE AGP Some old IDE HD... So I got all my hardware working except my crappy old TV card..no biggy. Toughest was the graphics, but I got ci/qe working. Here is what I don't like so far: -Mouse tearing -rather poor graphics performance: scrolling through web doesn't feel smooth, HD video playback is bad... -HD could be faster So I'm thinking about.. ...moving my OS X to my new, faster SATA II drive ...Buying a used Geforce 7900GT pci expr. Has anybody made similar upgrades? Is this going to solve my problems and make my os run smoother? Next Computer has to be a real mac Thx for any replies!! cheers fleisch Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/67375-anybody-using-asrock-775dual-vsta-with-pci-esata/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecker Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 You could eventually have trouble with your SATA drive. Why not get a quality IDE drive with lots of cache? The graphics upgrade should be ok, though. hecker Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/67375-anybody-using-asrock-775dual-vsta-with-pci-esata/#findComment-478262 Share on other sites More sharing options...
