Hello, So I’ve upgraded my system with a Radeon RX660 and did a Clean install with OpenCore. Overall I’m very glad I did, and it usually works very well. However, I am encountering two annoying issues. 1/ Ever since I performed the install following Dortania’s guide, I've been experiencing...

To be honest I didn't know I had the option to orient it this way. But anyway, as you can see, I think it wasn't really an option due to the G5 rather inconvenient form factor. I don't think I have sufficient space to re-orient it but I'll sure try since I'm gonna have to detach the Heatsink...

Hey guys! So I’m planning to buy a Radeon 6600 during black friday for my hackintosh, along with a WD blue m2 ssd, and maybe some ram. I’d like to update my system to Monterey and I chose the 6600 because it’s supported in Monterey and the price is now reasonably low. Only problem is my huge...

Hello, I would like to upgrade my build with a dedicated graphics card. (I have always used integrated graphics so far.) I’m sorry I already posted a question about this recently. I know Radeons are the best choice for a natively recognized card in Monterey, and the 6600XT in particular would a...

So I'm looking to upgrade RAM as well as getting a dedicated graphic card. I read some time ago (I think on this very thread) that one should always use the same RAM frequency on every memory slot, and preferably the same brand / model too. But would it be OK to upgrade a 2*8 GB setup with a...

Thanks @penrow1 I'll look into it. I think just buying an 6600 XT and upgrading to Monterey will be the best option for me :)

Wow, thank you so much for all this great information! @Stork Initially I thought I'd have preferred to avoid the hassle of updating past Mojave, as I'm already not sure how I got my system up and running on Mojave. (I think I just used one of @jb007 EFI files at some point :) ). But if I can...

Yeah I know that sucks, but at the same time it's either that or no graphic card at all, since all the models that would be natively supported on this build seem to be discontinued on every shop I know. :banghead: I didn't know the vega 56 and 64 weren't fully supported, thanks for the update. I...

Hi! I've been using this build with integrated graphics for a while now. With the cryptocurrencies crash and the subsequent price drop on graphic cards, I'm now considering buying dedicated graphic card. I'm not looking to run very recent video games, I just want to be able to edit videos more...

Wow Peter, it sure looks beautiful to me! Makes me wonder if I really should keep the old superdrive too... So the 3'5 hdd are piled on top of each other, right?

Thanks Neil! After a few tryouts, it appeared to me that the old G5 PSU case might be a little bit too big to be repurposed as a HDD bay because of the way the Lazer Hive mod moves the motherboard towards the bottom of the case, in order to gain enough space for the PSU at the top (although it...

I love this idea! Thank you, I would never have thought of this.

Thank you for your answer :) It's strange, here's a link to the picture : http://www.casimages.com/i/18012806413283696.jpg.html I've got plenty of space, but since I plan to install two fans at the front of the case, I'm not sure where would be the best play to put a drive bay. Speaking of...

Hi! So I bought a G5 case It's an already modified case. The guy I bought it from installed a full ATX conversion kit with PSU mount from the Lazer Hive. As he already did most of the hard work, I'm only wondering where I should fix HDDs and SSDs inside of the case, and how. I want to...
