Wondering what you have done to your system lately. I can't upgrade easily since I run a dual monitor setup with dvi-vga and a dvi-hdmi. Updates always seam to break these.
I saw you mention fakesmc a little while ago. Have you had any luck with reading temps? If so could you post your fakesmc your using? Im also looking to push the OC a bit more if possible maybe open up the ram mhz too. What do you think? Ive heard our board is a bit limited on OC ability.
Im looking to update to a core i7 for video editing. I want at least 12g of ram !
Any suggestions any one? Im also looking to keep it under 600 if possible :-)
good to see this thread alive and well, ill read through more of the updates when I get a chance.

Short version on OC.. I had been using my settings from
http://osx86.co/f57/guide-retail-sno...post41881.html but now, I can't get CPU Host Clock Control to stay "on".. ie. I go to the settings.. get all set up for 3GHz, save to BIOS, and it reboots and shows the values with the Host Freq back down to 200MHz.. so no dice.
For FakeSMC, I just tried every version I could find... encountering KPs and/or a machine that would not reboot, finally settling on Fake SMC 454 and IntelThermal from
http://www.projectosx.com/forum/inde...showtopic=1643... put these in E/E....and now I have temps AND auto-sleep.
Sorry, can't recommend anything i7.. I haven't really paid much attention to what the easiest socket-1156 hackintosh is.. our G31M had to be one of the best for our socket.
EDIT: I added the SuperIO and ACPI plugins from the same page. I can see fan speed, but not clear to me that any contol is happening yet.
EDIT2: I lost audio somewhere in the above (had it initially after 10.6.5 upgrade). F-it... rather than fight it, I had a $2 USB audio stick laying around.. I plugged that in and will use that instead.
