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. 2 Opteron systems: OSx86 10.5.8, Andy's 9.8.0 kernel, Asus A8N-SLI Premium, Opteron 185 o'clocked @ 2 x 2,95 GHz (2nd system 2.6 GHz), ATI Radeon HD2600XT 256MB Dual-Monitor 2x HP L2035, 4 GB RAM, Griffin FireWave as main audio device, Marvell + nForce LAN, Asus U3S6 USB3/SATA6 card, 5,5 TB harddisk, Firewire 800 card, Apple Remote + eHome IR receiver, 2x Wacom serial graphics tablet, Canon Pixma iP4700, Logitech Internet Navigator wireless keyboard/mouse combination. My Audio stuff: M-Audio Transit USB (default audio), M-Audio ProFire 610, M-Audio ProFire Lightbridge (34 channels) using Creamware A16 ADAT converter • MIDI: M-Audio Midiman 4x MIDI interface • Behringer Audio Mixers: Xenyx 1002, Xenyx 1002FX, Xenyx 1202FX, Eurorack UB1002FX, Eurorack MX1804FX, Eurorack MX262A • FX devices: Lexicon MPX100 DSP, Behringer DSP-1000 Virtualizer, Behringer MiniFEX 800 DSP, Behringer Multicom Pro MDX4400 compressor • RETRO: MSSIAH midi/sequencer/synthesizer cardridge for the C64 (Dual-SID), Steinberg M.S.I.
