Hello!

I want to know what is the most cheapest video card at the moment that works with Kaliway 10.5.2 or ideneb 10.5.5 without problems?


Thanks in advance,
Reimo!

Hi Reimo,

My suggestion is NVidia GeForce 7300GT!

Yes, 7300GT is a good option to go with. You can also go with 8600GT as its also cheap these days. As the card depends on your budget you'll pick the one that suits it the best. Any of nvidia work fine, 7300GT ,7600GT ,8500GT ,8600GT , 8800GT/GTS. Very good card is 7900/7950GT but its a bit expensive even now.

I had no problems with a Geforce 8400GS!
And it's very cheap at the moment, only about 29 euros in Germany (256MB).

Worked great! :)

Hi Reimo,

Yes, that video card should work fine!

According to the HCL it's fully working with NVinstaller v.41.

Cheers.

A few more questions: Will the driver installation remove the mouse artifacts and enable Qe or what was irs name:P(8400gs)
I have my modem connected to the computer by an usb cable because i am using the ics connection with my xbox 360XD. mac os x wont recognise connection then. Could i do something?
Can we, who have the ideneb, leo4all, kalyway etc do everything an original mac user can with his mac os x?
Does aving a hackintosh has some minuses too?
If i get these answers then this forum is the best:D

Thanks in advance,
Reimo!

The ATI X1600Pro card is also fine. The Gigabyte Radeon X1600 Silentpipe 2 256MB (with heatpipe) is sometimes < 20 Euro on ebay.
