Hi and thanx for visiting!
I tried hackintosh 10.4 tiger a while back and it didnt really work for me (on an older system) !!
since i have a macbook (2007) i still have a real mac to use but if this goes boom betty bye bye i want to have another OSX system working.
PS1.: i dont need yosemite. maybe 10.8.4 is just fine? but how to decide which is best for my hardware ?
PS2.: Yes there are buyer guides, but as i see it these are always just for actuall hardware arent they ?. Havent seen old guides.. ? (remember im new'ish here and i have used the search function) and i dont want to buy everything new if it is possibly to have "good to go" hardware (just not the newest or for the newest system) so i hope you can help me out a bit with your experience or if you have (had) similar (hopefully working) hardware components..
heres my hardware which i already have and which is working with Win7. 64bit.
CPU: i5 2500k 3.3ghz
Mainboard: (have an Asrock Fatat1ty P67 Performance which isnt good for HT(hackintosh)) so im going to buy a Gigabyte P67A-UD3-B3 or Z68XP-UD3 or Z68XP-UD4 Motherboard (used) so i can use my other hardware (cheaper ) (probably more like one of Z68XP ones) instead of buying new stuff
Ram: 16 GB Corsair Vengeance 4x4 GB
HD: (for OSX/Hackintosh system) 64GB OSZ Agility 3 SSD
HD: Samsung SSD 840 (PC system)
HD: Seagate ST2000 DL003 (just for data)
HD: Seagate ST1500 LM003 (External 2.5" USB HD, data)
Graphic Card: Geforce GTX 680 (Zotac) 2gb (is this ok or should i better buy another Card ???) Havent seen much good infos about it here for HT. Its a great card for the PC and Premiere and Gaming thou.
Ive seen there are some drivers for the mac so hopefully this work work just fine !!!
BD Drive: LG BH10LS30
Firewire card: IEEE 1394 Texas Intruments 1394 OHCI Compliant Host Controller (Firewire is on board on the Z68XP boards so i wont need this most likely)
Sound: RME Fireface 800 (there are mac drivers)
Keyboard: QPAD MK-80 (superb LED Gaming keyboard which is a standard PS/2 Keyboard + USB)
anyway would buy a USB Mac keyboard NP, if this wouldnt work.
Mouse: Mionix NAOS 3200 and Razer Death Adder (the adder has mac drivers as well)
guess thats all ! ??
do you think this would work fine as a HT ?
what would you change eventually ?
which osx would you install ? 10.8.4 most likely ??
Guess Multibeast is the way to go ? ?
Did i miss something ? I dont know,
anyway every little hint/advice you may have is very much appreciated !!
Maybe even someone has a similar system and can send me his DSDT File ?
i have no ides about terminal or unix so i hope i get this running when it comes to DSDT..
SO far so good Thanx in advance for your knowledge !!
