Sandy Bridge Builds?

[rommel64]

has anyone been able to get temp software to read cpu temps ?

 

[user137]

has anyone tried an ITX Sandybridge setup yet?
I'll hopefully be getting an Asus P8H67-I Deluxe soon, so I'd appreciate if any of you have any info.

If not, I'll be the first to try

Glazou - Can you think of any reason your build instructions would not work with the Asus P8P67 Deluxe as opposed to the EVO?

Hmm, my GA-P67A-UD5 os x was working fine but when I changed my hard disk boot priority in the bios to boot the os x disk first, it keeps getting a kernel panic on the grey apple screen. Anyone seen this before? I changed back to the the original order I had in the bios but I'm still getting a kernel panic.

forget about the 8gb thing...
just removed "arch=i386"and worked!!

just wondering, has anyone pur sandy to sleep (and being capable of waking up) ?
and about the smbios... the clock is right (3,3ghz) but the name and memory info are all wrong... any ideas ?

btw, i\m using the chameleon bootloader for sandy (multibeast).

thanks to everyone who helped!!

Please, mini faq how to install OSX on Intel DP67BG
I tried to install so
buy retail 10.6.3
burn iBoot on CD
start from iBoot
change CD ?? DVD and F5
loading start and Panic

my PC
Intel DP67BG
intel i-7 2600
2x 4Gb RAM
HDD Win 7 on SATA0 (6gb)
HDD fies on SATA1 (6gb)
Optiarc on SATA2 (3gb)
HDD for MAC on SATA3 (3gb)
Video nVidia 470GTX

This is best in a new thread, but, make sure you're using iBoot Legacy, and not the standard iBoot. The legacy version offers Sandy Bridge support.

Just got mine up last night after 3 attempts.

2600k @ 4.2ghz
asus Sabertooth p67 rev3
Sapphire HD6870
16 gigs G skill ripjaws
64 c300 SATA III

cliff notes on what I did

boot with Andys bootcd
instal SL 10.6.3
Reboot with Andys bootcd
10.6.7 Combo update
Reboot with Andys bootcd

Heres where I kept going into trouble...
Used andys installer package for the ati6000.. but the ati6000controller.kext and the hda892 kext hadn't installed properly and was stuck with no sound and video stuck at 1024.

Went through and deleted the offending ATI kext, and the HDA kexts. Ran those in multibeast and rebuilt permissions and caches. Restart and Voila... It all seems to be working for the most part.


A f**king massive thank you to Andy for his boot CD, To Tony and everyone that helped make multibeast, Yoga for answering a couple Questions prepurchase, insanlymac crew, and finally to all of you osx86 modders for inspiration and helping me get this thing up and running!!!

First new computer in 7 years, and it feels good to have built it with the OS I wanted!!!

w00t!!!!

Now I just need to install my other 3 hardrives, get windows on one of them, add my scsi card( If it will even work... stupid vintage audio samplers), tweaks for performance, and then restock my machine with programs!

Till next time

Mine's running.. having issues with the Gigabyte P67 motherboard though. No way to oc past x33 multiplier (ie 3.3ghz). Going to upgrade my bios and see if that will help. Currently running F2. There are some specs:

Snow Leopard 10.6.7
Intel Core i7 2600k SB @ 3.3ghz
Gigabyte P67A-UD3-B3
Corsair 16GB DDR3 PC1600
Seagate Momentus XT Hybrid HD
EVGA GTX 260
Dual Dell 27" IPS Displays

Bluetooth, ethernet, sound (via USB uDAC) all work. I've attached a 32Bit GeekBench score too. This will be my baseline.
