My first build, thoughts?
 
Okay so I thought I was going to buy a ready made PC for hackintosh but I now know
that it would be easier and cheaper to build one. This isn't my first build but its my
first build for OS X. And thanks for jdratlif's sub $500 build I used that as a guide.

MOBO - GIGABYTE GA-G31M-ES2L
AUDIO - Integrated Realtek AlC883
GPU - My old ATI Radeon 7500
CPU - Intel Pentium E5300 2.6GHz / or E5200 (any suggestions?)
RAM - G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2

HD - SAMSUNG HD502HI 500GB 5400 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
CASE - Rosewill R379-SM Black/ Silver 0.8mm SGCC Steel MicroATX Slim Case Computer Case PSU ATX12V Flex 300W Power Supply



So for installing I already have the iDeneb 10.5.5 release does anyone know if this would for with this system?
I am planning on installing with the iDeneb and then updating to 10.5.6 using a retail disc.

Thoughts, Comments, Suggestions are Welcomed

Thanks

Your old Radeon 7500 is not supported. I've bought now for my systems ATI Radeon HD2600XT cards. They're not the newest things, but fully supported (Dual-Monitor, TV-Out) and displays resolutions up to 2048x1536. There are various hetapipe versions out ther, and the card only needs 50W.

As harddisk I would recommend the Samsung HD103UJ, it is more than twice as fast then the HD50x series. But don't buy a 103UI, this one has only 5400 rpm.
