thanks for yr fast re!
thing is: i have to buy all the components for this sys... so i guess i need a little more information first.. but i'll do research on lawless..

You wanna try leopard, and you didnt buy the parts yet, you better try with Intel man, check the sticky to get some combos

i read yr sticky yesterday evening and rebuild one of yr systems at my onlinestore of trust. i'm working on this with/for a friend and osx installation should not be tooo tricky. best would be using something like ideneb..

do you think this spec should work w/ ideneb?
maybe the processor is little bit to expensive.. maybe we will downgrade this one..

many many thanks!

ps. you suggested as for power supply a 750/1000w device.. what is taking this huge amount of power within yr spec? i thought only a gtx295 is sooo hungry..
