AMD compatibily?
 
Hey, i'm downloading LawlwssPPC 10.5.4 now..
and i've tried iAtkos, iDeneb, iDeneb Lite plus countless other distros in the past..

I just wanted to know if this will work (i custome built it myself :D)
  • AMD Phenom X4 965BE
  • ASUS M4A87TD EVO Motherboard
  • AMD (ATI) HD5770 Radeon Graphics 1GB
  • TP Link TL-WN781N PCI Wireless Express Adapter
  • Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB Serial ATA HDD (I think, i can't quite remember for sure)

Thanks heaps! :)

Hello,

I think it will work!!! For the CPU and the graphics card i can say this for sure. Itīs just the mainboard i donīt know but that should be no problem.
I would not install 10.5!!! If you wanīt to use a distro i would use Hazards 10.6!!!

Good luck!!!

10.5 is Leopard.. 10.6 is Snow Leopard right?
Are you sure Hazards will work with my CPU and GPU though?

Because I've heard Zepyroths and LawlessPPC are the only Phenom Compatible Distros?

Thanks heaps :D

If this is a version of leopard you will not get your graphics card to work. ;)

So for the 5770 to work, i need snow leopard?

wastez 03-24-2011 07:59 AM

Yes, the minimum is 10.6.4 so that it works.

some people should do a little more research before posting the wrong info
