    9800GTX replacement: GTX 280 or ATI 5970? 10.6.8

    I think I'll go with the GTX 280 then. I don't have spare time to play Battlefield 3 so I won't need the dual GPU ;)

    9800GTX replacement: GTX 280 or ATI 5970? 10.6.8

    I'm currently running 10.6.8 with a 9800 GTX. Which one of the above mentioned cards offers the best hassle-free installation? I know that you have to disable the second GPU on the 5970 by tweaking some stuff. Is the GTX 280 plug & play on Snow Leopard?

    [in progress] Alienware Aurora R3 - i5 3.10 GHz - GF9800GTX+

    I realized it's running in 32-bit. Do I really need 64-bit? It's detecting the whole 8 GB memory, but will I have problems in case I want to upgrade to Lion?

    What is the onboard ethernet device type? Something like RTL8xxx In my case it works fine after I installed the Realtek driver from MultiBeast. I have an RTL8111/8168B

    Update: Ethernet now works using the Realtek driver found in MultiBeast; Audio works using VoodooHDA 2.7.2 but there's a strong constant hiss (like white noise); I installed the USB3 NEC driver from MultiBeast, but now as soon as I connect a device to the USB3 ports the computer freezes. USB...

    The audio chipset is called CougarPoint High Definition Audio Controller, ID 8086:1C20 It's not the usual Realtek ALCxxx

    Hi folks, first of all thanks to tonymacx86's guides, posts and the whole forum which contains lots of good info. I'm new here although not new to the hackintosh - but I never really tweaked and worked with kexts as I made a custom build a few years ago which fully worked out of the box (audio...
