From that netkas link: AndyStubbs reports that his 6970 still does not work on a hackintosh, only 6950's with the modified netkas BIOS do on real Macs  Sad day. _________________ P67 Guide - viewtopic.php?f=79&t=23350

ML is still months away... moths in which i can't use my precious 2GB eyefinity 6950 We're not going to support trading and backporting kexts to Lion here. I'm only commenting on info I've seen around. In any case- it looks like the 69xx situation seems a bit immature and experimental at this point.

Even sadder day I think ever since the Nvidia 9600GT fiasco Apple has been slow to support the latest GPU's. They seemingly wait to see if there are any issues with failures which is generally 4-6 months... Same happened with 6xxx series; though I'd expect some drivers at least being built for them, unless they are going for nvidia next time around? As someone mentioned the nvidia drivers is newer than PC's! _________________ Old System> SkeletalMac MKII 10.7.3: Z77X-UD5H, i7 2600K, 16GB ram, Intel 510 120GB SATAIII, Geforce GTX 560 ti 448 Core (GF110)YodobashiMac MKII 10.7.3: Z68MA-D2H, i3 2100, 8gb RAM, Geforce 210, 6TB's of storage, PLEX+SABnzb+SickBeardClick for a guide to overclocking on Z68/Z77 boards with power management and a min SSDT editing guide!

For me it works perfectly on a hack. Almost everything works great except iTunes it causes Kernel Panic.

According to the netkas post, no 6950 or 6970 support for hackintoshes - Andy thinks it is a chameleon issue. However, real Macs work.
In other news, someone says a 560Ti works fine on a hack with NO kext edits - completely OOB in MtLion

synnys, whats holding you back? I have a 2 GB AMD 6950 by HIS working almost perfectly in lion atm. All you need is the latest Chimera, ATY_init.kext, and netkas' patched ATIRadeonx3000.kext, ATIRadeonx3000GL.bundle, and ATI6000Controller.kext
EDIT: You will get a white screen at first boot. This is fixed by hitting the reset button and allowing it to boot again
