I have tested installing Mac OSX Snow Leopard using your motherboard before and it worked fine (I used a Core 2 Duo E8400 then).

So I believe you should be able to run Mac OSX Snow Leopard and Lion on this system.

Thank you for your answer!!!

In terms of HDD should i go for a Seagate 1TB 32MB Cache? and the Ram, 4gig is enough or it's better to buy more?

I don't want to spend that much more money on this system, but i would like to know what is worth upgrading.

everything there will run osx fine.

you dont need more ram, and you dont need a bigger hard drive to run it.

if you feel you want more ram and a bigger hard drive, then thats up to you.
