romanosgr Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 hello everyone! i really need to make my self a nice present this xmass and i was thinkin bout a really nice upgrade for my music pc.. Since my AMD X2 3800+ is such a f** pain and it certainly not even competes the latest 65nm trend i was thinkin bout ordering the Q6600 + some good mobo http://www.e-shop.gr/show_per.phtml?id=PER.522556 but i definitely need to make that babe work with leopard. Can you please give some input bout this mobo and your impressions? Am i gonna find all the drivers i need to make this mobo and all 4 cores working with leopard? If not can you please reference some ready to go quad core solution mobos that will make leo work out of the box? Thanks!!! And a happy new year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtotho Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 the quad is compatible... but why not wait 1-2 months for intel to release the 45nm... not saying thats most compatible with mac but it will be much better for the computer....

grendelkhan Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I have the cut down version of that mobo, the p5kpl-vm and it runs flawlessly under leopard, except for the nic, had to throw in a generic 3com card to get that. Other than that, on all SATA drives, it was a smooth install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a happy new year I have the same MB with Q6600 4G Ram I installed Leopard (Kalyway) without any problems, The only thing that is not working is the Realtek Lan controllers... I'm still looking for the drivers for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
