~pcwiz Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Hi, I am planning on building a hackint0sh and I need recommendations on a video card that is fully working with Leo and Tiger. Right now I'm leaning towards a BFG or XFX GeForce 7600GT 256MB. Please, any suggestions? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Nonny Moose Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 If you're going to dual boot, then get the Radeon 9600 hybrid. While it's not the latest and greatest, it's very usable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~pcwiz Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 Thanks for the suggestion, but the 9600 is ancient. I need something modern, probably a 7xxx series GeForce. Like I said, I'm going towards the 7600GT but I need to know if its compatible with Leo and Tiger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybertlc Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 GeForce 7300GS works great (QE/CI, Hardware Accerated, All Resolutions) Also, ATI X1600 works great with hacked KEXT (QE/CI, Hardware Accelerated, All Resolutions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~pcwiz Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 I need something with decent gaming performance so 7300GS I don't think will work. I am thinking about a X1600. Right now on my PC here I have an X1650 Pro and it has very good performance. But then again, 7600GT has better perf than X1600 and the price difference is minimal. So PLEASE if anyone has an 7600GT working in Leopard TELL ME. I am also considering the ASUS EN7600GS SILENT...I don't know if that works with Leopard either. I know that both 7600 GT and GS work in Tiger but the question is do they work on Leopard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I guess most nvidia 7 series graphic cards with 256MB works. Some flash their 512MB to work in OS X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulicat Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Just watch out for ASUS, some of their cards have crappy bios's that prevent them from working in OSX properly. I have a 7600GS that works flawlessy with Titan or Natit. Its made by Foxconn. Paulicat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~pcwiz Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 Glad I'm going with 7900GS. Seems to be a lot of problems with noisy fans in 7900GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
