you would need to use a higher version of macOS
If you mean a Z68 or H67 motherboard then yes, you could install Snow Leopard. You'd need to use 10.6.8 and have either an HD3000 CPU or a SL supported graphics card. Look at some of the older Buyer's guides for ideas of what would work. Any newer than that (Z or H77 boards or newer) there is no Snow Leopard support. Really can't run it well on those.
10.6.8 installed and ran fine on my Gigabyte Z68 system with HD3000. I never really used it though as Lion was already out of beta then. Back in 2012.
i saw 10th gen mentioned in the first post and didn't think that was supported?
Definitely not supported. SL came out back in latter 2009. Ancient history.
thought so
It's right there in my signature. It's not easy to find that GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3 board anymore. Sometimes one or two show up on Ebay now and then. It's best to get the seller to provide some return option if it has bent pins or some other problem and won't boot. They don't sell cheap, even used ones.
