OK, thank you! I read though, that there is a software for the MBP which allows to force one of the 2 GPUs. That's why I thought it might work. But I'm also wondering, wouldn't that be a problem with where I plug the monitor in? Off-topic: Do you know if it is possible with Windows?

Hey. I ordered the i7 4770K with the Intel HD 4600 and the GeForce GTX760. I am wondering, if it is possible (after having both work together) to choose which GPU to use for an app. For example, tell a game or Photoshop to use the GTX760, but tell Chrome to use the 4600. Is there a way to do...

I have pretty much finalized my list now. Could someone please take a look and tell me if everything will be compatible and work fine with OS X? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0Ar1cnSgo-btHdG1aUUNaWlhoTVVJeFR5bzQ3Q1BLVmc&output=html I am still a bit unsure about the SSDs because...

So, since 10.8.5 is finally out, which means new Buyers Guide soon I guess?, I'm trying to make sure everything else (beside the Motherboard, which I guess will be in the Buyers Guide, but we will see) is fine. I am wondering, if the SSD I chose so far is really the best available. I really...

I will probably stick to the Corsair tho, because it is listed in the buyer's guide :P Oh ok, thank you. Well I guess I will just take a MB without it then. I don't really need it anyways. I would wait for Mavericks, but I really need a PC now. I had to use my 7/8 year old laptop for over 2...

Oh ok, don't worry it's no problem :) it's great how many people you help :) Would the one you linked have any advances over the corsair? Or is it really 100% preference? So true :P But I don't really have a use for Thunderbolt right now anyways and my Budget also isn't unlimited :lol: Do we...

I think the one I linked was from the Buyer's Guide. What would be better about the Be Quiet models? Also, which of those would be sufficient for the parts on my list? Are they all Haswell ready? Yeah, I guess I will just buy a MB without Thunderbolt. I don't really need it and I guess I will...

OK thank you a lot! Is the power supply also good enough for everything? Or should I get another one? I wanted to wait for Thunderbolt motherboards originally, but I'm not sure if I shouldn't just stop waiting and buy this motherboard. Most likely Thunderbolt will be much too expensive for me...

So I recently put together a list of things for the PC. It's nothing final yet and I don't have a monitor so far, but could someone take a look and tell me if there would be any compatibility problems with any part? Also do you think there will be any problems with the 2nd (not the Corsair) case...

OK, thanks I will do that then when I found a monitor :)

For HDMI audio I need to have a patched DSDT right? What about DVI-D, does that support audio without DSDT? I really want a monitor with USB-ports, but I am worried that it won't work with a hackintosh :-( How are the USB-ports of monitors connected to the PC? Thank you so much!

Well I guess I will first try it with one SSD. I really can't afford buying 1 for OS X and 1 for Win right now :-( So far I only had Laptops so I really don't know what to expect :P I think I will just take a look at some monitors in a shop I think :) So DisplayPort is the best i can get, right?

Oh, ok thank you! OK, thank you for that tip! OK, thank you! I will definitely buy one before the build! Is it really THAT risky to have it double boot on one disc? The problem is, I don't want to buy 2 128GB SSD's just for the OS, because then there will be a lot of unused space on both...

I didn't buy Mountain Lion yet (I will do it as soon as my PC is built). Thank you so much for telling me about this iBoot thing though! Will the iBoot Haswell be here for 10.8.5 already or do I really have to wait for Mavericks? I have a Retail copy of SL from when I installed OS X on my laptop...

Hey! Since in the last few months I couldn't use my new samsung laptop at all (because it was being repaired all the time and it never worked) I am using my very old dell laptop for a while now, where I installed Snow Leopard on. I really started to love OS X, so I decided, I would build myself...
