2 x A8N32-Sli dlx with 2 gb Kingston HyperX 3200(both) 4200/4600 x2
1 x GA-K8N-Sli with 2GB Kingston Value Ram. 4000+

I use Azureus for Mac & utorrent via VMware Fusion (the best option for me) 5/6 dowloads simultaneuosly , I´m using wifi adapters 2 x Asus WL-138G v2 (broadcom chipset) working perfect like airport and appleyukon.kext from tiger for my A8N32-sli , i don´t use forcedeth. How long? all the time i need.

I always install from retail dvd patched with marvin, restored into a spare partition.

Hi bhast, thanks for your advice. i have now removed 2 gig of ram from the system will test and let you know. although i have tried this before (but i did have different problems at the time..

Firewalk

i hope it works because when you get your system running right you will never work with windows or linux or whatever again

@roisoft: so you don't use zephyroth's releases?? what method do you use to restore the DVD into spare partition? just normal Diskutility? And is there a method you use to make the installer bootable? and what version of the Leopard install DVD do you use?

also, thanks for the info on the wireless adapters. i may check them out. i've always hated the idea of getting a new lan adapter when i already have two built into my mobo (marvell and nLan), but if it's a wireless adapter, i wouldn't mind.

I have an external disk (usb/firewire), with 1 working leo, 1 tiger and 1 partition for installers. I like to see all the installers (zephyroth, iatkos, kalyway, eddie11c, XxX, tubgirl...).

I use the retail dvd 10.5.0, apply the efi bootloader for that partition and copy mach_kernel (toh), dsmos, AppleNforce..and delete Appleintelcpu,,,finally patch with marvin the partition. Don´t forget once the install finishes you need repeat the steps with the new install (copy kernel,dsmos....patch with marvin).

thanks for the info, i'll give it a try when i have some more free time. do you find that using the retail DVD has any advantages over Zeph's DVDs, or is it just for your own peace of mind?

riosoft!

how the heck is your graphics/OpenGL scores in xbench so high?

i have a 7900GT/KO that scores far lower than your 7600

my clock speeds are even factory oc'ed @ 580/1680

there is something magical about the 7600. it's favored by OSX, apparently. i can tell you that scores with my 8800GT are nowhere NEAR the ones roisoft is getting. actually, OSX hates my card :\

Real mac users use the retail dvd, so i like to be more close possible to real mac you know ?...don´t get me wrong, zeph´s releases are great and i think his work is awesome, admirable and amd users must be very happy and thankful.. [is this the word? sorry for my english ]

I have a 7950gt as well and 7600 have better results... the relation drivers/card are perfect.

hey roisoft, i'm going to send you a PM over at insanelymac.
