Guys, I am trying to upgrade old LGA775 P5Q board with new processor. It is Xeon L5430 with adapter. It is working perfectly under Windows since I've updated microcodes in BIOS. Bios I am using is so called 5th Year anniversary mode BIOS. Dual core E4400 is absolutely fine with the setup. So...

First, thanks to everyone who's contributed to this project. As someone who was around the OSx86 world in the early days, it's exciting to see how far things have come. I'm installing El Capitan on my new ThinkServer w/ Xeon E3-1225V3, 8GB RAM, Model 70A4001MUX It boots and installs just...

Hi, I'm putting together my first hackintosh and I'm a bit worried when it comes to the graphics card. From what I've read I gathered that installing nvidia web drivers is almost(?) always necessary for them to work. Now if I'm to build my hackintosh with a Xeon CPU which doesn't have a GPU I'm...

Can a xeon cpu be put in a desktop motherboard if the cpu socket is the same? I want to use the Xeon E5-2699 v3 18-core processor for my computer.

Hi. I'm building a Hackintosh for the first time and I noticed the motherboard I chose supports Dual Intel Socket LGA 2011/C602 chipset. I was planning to use 2 Intel Xeon LGA 2011 CPUs for my motherboard. I was wondering if my CPU would work with the motherboard or will I have to find a new CPU...

I have an original Mac Pro, 2-dual core 2.66GHz Xeon processors, and am looking to upgrade the GPU so I can upgrade OS beyond 10.7. Are there any known cards I can use to replace the ATI X-1900 card it shipped with? That is the reason I can't upgrade the OS, so I am looking for something to keep...

Hi~I've read Haswell-E + X99 Motherboard Temporary Guide - OS X 10.10, which mentions 6 or 8 cores Core i7. However I plan to build a workstation using XEON E5 2600 v3 servies. Would extra cores cause any trouble with VoodooTSCSync.kext? Basic concept of my build: Intel® Xeon® Processor...

I'm considering a processor upgrade. At a minimum I'll buy an Intel Core i5 3750K, or I may go for a Xeon E3-1230. Obviously the Xeon is a more radical jump, but it is slightly less expensive. Some people have described the E3-1230 as an i7 without on-chip video, which I find attractive if true...

I'm building a monster dual Xeon (E5-2699 v3) setup with an EATX modified Lian-Li case. Any recommendations on the best motherboard for the task? With this chip, which performs very well on benchmarks, I need a 10th gen (Haswell EP) LGA2011 v3 (Socket R3) motherboard. So the options I'm...
