nforce 790i

Hi there,

Can i install mac os x on a nforce 790i motherboard. i checked http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/in...2#Motherboards but they are for 10.5.2 and there is no 790i. i realy wish that it can work...

if there is no way to do that, i am gonna buy Asus Maximus II Formula (i rather striker II) but i also think about Rampage. To be honest i just dont know what to do.

So i will be greatful if you can give me some suggestions.

According to someone from the InsanelyMac forums, it is possible to run Leopard on a 790i ultra motherboard, although it is difficult. I myself have a striker II Extreme, and boy, its giving me HELL! I tried sata AND ide and no success. on the insanelymac forum theres a thread regarding leopard on 790i mobos, it has a jpeg/pdf of the bios settings that might help. I hear Leo4All works the best with these motherboards, but im unsure.
