Hi all, I am looking into building a Hackintosh as my current Windows machine has gone t*tsup (random freezing, I suspect the motherboard). I want to run a patched version of Leopard. I would like suggestions for the following, preferably from someone who has done this before. - Which board and chip should I buy? I want an Intel Core2Duo based system. Must be good enough to run Leopard smoothly. Onboard graphics would be a big bonus. I'm assuming ATi graphics would be a good choice as most current Macs seem to use this. My budget for both board and chip is £50-£80 all in, so I don't have a huge budget to play with. - Which patched version of Leopard should I run? Cheers.
I run a Gigabyte GA-G31M-S2L with a E2160. The board runs the new Intel GMA graphics(Can't remember the model) Ive used both Kallyway and iDenab and both work bout of the "box". Ive used 10.5.2 but I now see that 10.5.6 is out. If your not sure check this out.
Gigabyte boards are your best bet really. i tryed to put iDenab onto my machine, but failed due to my graphics card being strange in memory size and the GPU is unknown to Apple. have a look at this list and pick one
