the BRIX is interesting but has anyone done a price comparison against a DIY build from parts or even against a mac mini? It seems like the BRIX will cost quite a bit once you get it all together.

it's a rare occurence, but the button/switch may be bad, i've had a case in the past where the button was broken.

Hil all, I’ve been a member here for a few years but have not messed around with my build the last few years. I was happily chugging along on this hardware build with Mt Lion the last 2 years. But i recently bought a new monitor that required an upgrade to get the native resolution so i had to...

XMP is controlled by the BIOS not by OSX, it depends on whether your RAM supports XMP, XMP is just auto settings for the RAM, you can tweak the parameters yourself if you know what your doing.

Re: Problems with Triple Boot 10.7, W7, Ubuntu So first off, don't panic, you're not that far off. you can do some more research for exact steps but basically what you have to do is understand how the bootloaders work. When you install W7, Linux, Chimera you're installing a boot-loader and...

all hackintoshes are more work, more risk then a macpro, that's what you get for the money you save, if you don't have the patience or the willing to plan ahead for problems then you should save your money for a macpro. that said, your problem with the gtx460 is your fault, this card (and all...

i can also confirm no fermi freeze with an evga gts450. and on top of that i got screen rotation back as well.

well you'll just have to trust some of us that some things are fixed ;)

i have the same device-id card (an evga) and it works great now, no edits to the kext requierd, i just had to make sure i was using a chameleon build over 1000. i even got rotation back on the second screen! no lockups but only been running for a day.

i had no problem getting this card to work for DVI but i could never get it to work with dual inputs. performance is fine for non-graphical stuff, but if you use any graphical apps its a little weak. also something i've noticed from recent threads, it seems like there is a new gen of this card...

i've use this card with dual-dvi before.

Yes known problem, still no fix.

what specific graphics card are you thinking of? the apple one? because it's not made to work with hackintosh, a gigabyte 5770 would be a better choice.

just to help you with a few things. 1) try to stick with the reference builds by tony as close as possible, this does not necc. mean you won't have problems, but then at least you will have others here with a similiar built which can help you. And when i say follow the guide, try to follow...

if you follow tony's instructions, you don't need to reinstall, you just install all the new drivers first from multibeast, shutdown, install the card and then you'll be fine. on the 3 ports, i'm only using the 2 DVI ports, i can't get any output on the HDMI port so YMMV on that. I'm using an...

you need keep in mind that MACOSX does not support SLI video cards, and having two active cards is a bear to get working, so you need to decide how many screens you really want to drive. There is success of getting the Radeon 5770 cards going with dual-dvi + DP w/ converter, for 3 total...

for video card, i'd do some more research, especially if you need HDMI, i know some of the GT240 cards do support HDMI so check with that. The 5770 is a great card but it is about $120. Keep something in mind though, you can try to save $50 here or $100 there, but you also have to factor in...

your life will be a lot easier if you can follow one of the known builds from tonymac http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2010/08/ ... -2010.html http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2010/06/ ... te-pc.html

hassle free card around the same performance as your 5670 is the 5770, get a reference card (dual-dvi, hdmi, displayport)

i'm pretty sure none of the 55xx cards are supported. if your budget is low i'd suggest the asus 8400gs which can be had for $20 after rebate.
