Thread: $1000 hackintosh help me pick parts

hi i wont to build a hackintosh but you guys get to pick all the parts but i dont what to mess around to much put snow leopard or loin on to it.
so your picking the parts but when you post all of it add where i go to get the guide to set it up with osx.
i have to be able to get the parts from MSY-The name you can trust-More than 14yrs In IT industry-Nationalwide branches serve you & offer the best IT price everyday or ebay or allneeds.com.au please help

There are many parts fully compatible right now, Sandy Bridge systems work superb on OS X. For a somewhat good overview what to buy I can recommend TonyMac's CustoMac build, which are decent computers on it's own. Important is that you choose exactly the same motherboard as listed there, because any little change in chipset can make the system not Hackintosh-ready!

i had a look and i like the 4th one its a bit out of my price range but i wat to make changes to it who would i ask. and i cant find a installation guide for this build please help

Nowadays, there is no “guide”. It’s pretty much:
get the retail copy of the Mac OS X,
get a “cd-boot”,
get fakesmc.kext,
get a dsdt pather,
get the necessary additional kexts (kernel extensions) (“drivers”) (if any need it)
enjoy your hackintosh!

If you are interested in building a M(H)ac Pro (4,1 or 5,1), so that your system will be as compatible as possible, the 2 most important items to choose are the motherboard and the video card.
The most used motherboards to create a hackintosh, I think, they are the Gigabyte ones. The nVidia cards are also pretty much straight forward (only Graphics Enabler needed).
Make a configuration and then post the components here, and if adding or removing one is necessary, I’m sure the guys here will help you.

Differences between Mac Pro models Mac Pro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(GT 120 is rebranded 9500 GT)

CPU: Intel Core i7-2600K staying
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD5-B3 staying
Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 6870 maybe change later on dont know yet
RAM: Corsair Vengence Blu 1600Mhz DDR3 (16GB) i have a question about this ram but will be asked in my next post later today
Case: Cooler Master Elite 370 not getting and what to change please help referee to the first post on what you can pick
Power Supply OCZ 600 ModXStream Pro not getting and what to change please help referee to the first post on wat you can pick
Optical Drive: Sony Optiarc not getting and what to change please help referee to the first post on what you can pick
Hard Drive: Seagate 1 TB 7200RPM not getting and what to change please help referee to the first post on what you can pick

Then,
CPU – check
Motherboard – check
GPU – check or you can choose 5770, cheaper

Since this are the important ones, the rest you can change as you wish. For:

Case – must have a power supply in accordance with the consumption of power and the ”room” (interior) must have enough space to accommodate the motherboard, video card and rest – middle tower and up

Optical Drive, Hard Disk – I can pick them for you, but I don’t know your “needs”; for example: I don’t really need the Optical Drive since I know how to install Mac OS X in different ways, including not needing a DVD-ROM; as for Hard Disk, the same, it is enough 250GB but it can go up to 1TB, it can be a regular SATA drive, but it can be a SSD drive as well...

hello i wanna installed Mac OS X 10.7 Lion or Mac Snow leopard on Biostar G41-D3+ any suggestion or can anybody me to installed in that, which has ddr3 support ...................................
