Install went flawlessly.

Motherboard: Asus A8N-LA
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3700 +
RAM : 2 Gig PC 3200
GPU: on board Geforce 6150 LE didn't function properly, Now Geforce 8400 GS 256mb Full support :D
Audio: Realtek ALC883 8-channel High Definition Audio fully working using ALC883_DS3.pkg
LAN: Realtek RTL8201CL did not work properly, installed a new Belkin card and worked out of the box.

Everything works as it should I have had no crashes what so ever. ilife and front row work flawlessly everything is really responsive and much faster then windows. About this mac everything thats been reported to give problems with osx86 works perfect for me.

CPU: AMD64 3200+

Ram: 3x512Mb DDR
VGA: ATI x1650 Pro 256Mb AGP
Audio: OnBoard (AC97)
Lan: OnBoard (Forcedeth)
HD: WD 200Gb Sata
Dvd - RW: Nec

Everything worked perfect, but I had to change the ApplenForceATA.Kext and ApplenForceATA.kext with the ones from Tiger, because with the ones which were in the dist. couldn't load the installer.

Also I think that my vga is not fully supported, do you have any good kext that I can change.

And last but not least I can't load into Leopard without the installation dvd and I can't make it work in dual boot with my Vista.

OSX: Zephyroth's 10.5.2 Rev. 2 (EFI, MBR)
Processor: AMD 4200+ X2 64 AM2 (works without problems, sees both cores)
MB: MSI K9N Neo v.1 (no problem)
Graphics: GeForce 6200TC, 256MB (no problem, but sees only 128MB (?). Anyway, I am going to buy better one later, after I'see it is realy stable.)
AUDIO: integrated -realtek (don't know which exactly, but works nice)
LAN: nForce Networking Controller (doesn't work), PCI Realtek 1839 - works nice
HDD: Hitachi 200GB SATA-II (XP), Seagate 320GB SATA-II(Leo), Maxtor 15GB IDE (porn :))
dual boot EasyBCD 1.5.2

I am using final cut, motion and Toast, everything without problems. Only I got system to fall down was when I was using NTFS disk very frequently (about 6 folders at once copied to leo disk - every folder had few GB)

Audio: ALC888 Onboard (fully working with AppleHDA Patcher and Linux Dump)
RAM: 1GB DDR2 533Mhz
Video: PCIE Nvidia Geforce 7300GS 256MB (Fully working QE/CI except in 1280X800 I get a reverse letterbox effect)
LAN: Onboard non functional bought a cheap PCI one from Wal-Mart. works with tulip.kext
HDD: 200 GB SATA
Chipset: Nforce4 430
DVDRW #1: HL-DT-ST DVDRRW GSA-H20L fully functional
DVDRW #2: LITE-ON DVDRW SHW-160P6S fully functional
9in1 Media card reader=fully functional
Firewire and USB both work
Restart and Shutdown= fully working after turning off legacy USB mode in the BIOS

This is my first time trying any OS X version on my system. Looks like I chose the right one to install, thanks Zephyroth this worked great on my system all except the onboard LAN. But, a few bucks at Wal-Mart fixed that problem.

Edit: Found out for some reason iChat doesn't work for me in rev2 but it does with rev1... but that's the only thing that doesn't work.

The air cooled low noise system is for testing only. It works out of the box. The nForce 520LE southbrigde with LAN is
sometimes causing problems. But in general: Zephyroth makes a great job!

I have the Asus A8N-SLI Premium. Have you tested networking with forcedeth? It crashes at large files with a kernel panic. The forcedeth-v driver from Leo4All works better. Have you installed AC-97 Audio or ALC850? I now have SPDIF out in my output list, with AC-97 I hadn't. But I've not tested it ;-)

I have an Opteron 185 CPU which is nearly the same like the FX-60 (2x,2.6 Ghz, 2x 1MB L2-Cache). I've it running at 2.86 Ghz on Zephyroth 10.5.1, on Leo4all V3 it can be pushed to 3,03 GHz. Xbench Score 177,93 without disk test @ 3,03 GHz. The ATA-133 IDE disks had a great performance on OS X, the actual ATA-100 or SATA HD's are much slower in random access. A better nForce HD driver would be handy.
