Thank you for the advice. The reason I selected these specs as they are based on Apple's iMac which used a i5 2500, socket 1155 and shipped with Snow Leopard 10.6.6, you can see full specs over at everymac.com. This is the "End-of-Line" for Snow Leopard so I don't think anyone can do much better...

Thank you for taking the time and noting this information RS. I will heed your advice in my upcoming Snow Leopard build, which will be in a few days.

Perfect, thank you again the for the info GB. My parts should be delivered in a few days. Will report back here with final summation.

One other question about Multibeast options/selections, will I need to check "FakeSMC" for the Snow Leopard build, and/or anything to use USB 3.0 from the mobo?

Excellent. Thank You GB. I just purchased the parts and waiting to build an old-school Snow Leopard hackintosh build to run my rosetta supported apps.

[Success!] Multibeast Help Needed for GA-Z68XP-UD3 Could someone please help me check the correct boxes for the multibeast installation for SL 10.6.8 on Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD3 MoBo running i5 2500K processor with a Radeon 6850 1GB GPU and Samsung 240GB SSD please. Thanks

Thank you for explaining this. I was considering getting one or two of these for my systems and forgot the simple fact they were in fact going into a Hackintosh system. This should help many, who are like me, a great deal.

Greetings fellow Hackintoshers, I am in the process of planning and purchasing parts for a Sandy Bridge, Snow Leopard, 10.6.8 specific build. The reason I am going this route is I need to run some necessary legacy applications which require Rosetta and will not run on later versions of Mac OS...

Just updated from ML 10.8.2 on a Gigabyte UD5H mobo, lost audio on reboot after installing the 10.8.3 via App store, ran MutiBeast again for the Realtek ALC898 sound driver. After that audio was up and running again, so far so good.
