Will Mac OS X86 Work on This Hardware

@Voyn1xHave you bought the hardware yet? If not I would suggest you look into something intel based as this will make your life so much easier. Otherwise, I would probably look at installing using iPC first to get your system running and work out what kexts (drivers) you will need. You'll need to make sure you install the Voodoo kernel you…

How do I install support for the SB700 Southbridge chipset? Do I have to download drivers for it? And what about the ALC883? Do I have to download drivers for that, too?

The Radeon HD 4850 comes in one of the iMac configurations as an option, so it should be supported by Mac OS X, right? I know that Mac OS X 10.5.7 includes a lot of drivers for different GPUs...

Many thanks for your help. I'll be considering getting an Intel CPU.

@xXrkidXxas u instal iPC, you will see a section for Customize. Click it and look for drivers for your hardware. thats how you install drivers during the instal. But for things that are supported, but no on the DVD, google will be able to help you out.

That's great. Now I'm probably gonna give it a try. BTW, is there a list of the drivers that are included in the newest version of iPC? That would help a lot. Thanks.

You'll need to make sure you install the Voodoo kernel you as are running AMD. Also looking at Newegg, make sure you install support for the SB700 southbridge chipset (otherwise you won't be able to boot) and ALC883 audio. I have no experience with ATI cards so I can't offer a suggestion on that, FYI nvidia is better supported on Leopard. I'll let you work out the rest, otherwise you'll never learn anything...

Long term you should look at going the EFI partition route →, as this will make updating your system from Apple Software Update possible.

You'll find this more than helpful.
