Hi Guys,
I am new here and might need your help already. Not bad for a 1st post here. For professional purposes I need to buildup a very fast Hackintosh. However I am a newbi if it comes to a Hackintosh. So it might not be a good idea to start with this kind of system. But, I do not want to buy a proven (slower) system just to get practice and buy the desired system later on once it is simpler to install. So what should I do? Can I rely on your help here? I am using a Mac for a year now and I felt in love with OSX. I also run a Windows 7 VM using Parallels 7.
Here is the system I plan to use.
Asustek P9X79 Pro
Intel Core i7-3930K
XFX Radeon HD 6870 1GB :?
I would rather use a Radeon HD 6970 2GB. But I do not want to create even more problems. However I am a developer (Hardware) and have Mountain Lion here as well. I read that ML is supporting Radeon HD 6970 OOB. And discussions about it are not permitted here. So I have to stick to Lion and the Radeon HD 6870 I guess.
So do you think I can manage the problems with your help? Or is to difficult for a newbi to get this type of system running?
Thanks in advance and greets from Germany,
Hendrik
