Hi

After doing my research (Hackintosh.org, osx86project.org, insanelymac.com, buildahackintosh.com) I've come up with my shortlist for my own hackintosh. But before ordering all the parts I thought I'd post on a forum and get feedback, and where better than here!? ..so here is it;

- Intel Core i7 920 D0 Stepping (SLBEJ) 2.66Ghz (likely to be overclocked)
- Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 Intel X58 (Socket 1366) PCI-Express DDR3 Motherboard
- Corsair XMS3 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 (1600MHz) Tri-Channel
- XFX GeForce GTX 260 Black Edition 896MB GDDR3 PCI-Express Graphics Card
- Noctua NH-U12P SE1366 CPU Cooler
- Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache - OEM
- LG GH22NS40 22x DVD±RW SATA Dual Layer ReWriter (Black)
- Corsair TX 650W ATX SLi Compliant Power Supply

My main areas of concern are for the GTX 260 and the LG DVDRW (-;

EDIT: I need dual monitors to work (2x 1920x1200 over 2xDVI) (hence concern for GTX 260)
EDIT: I'm looking to run 10.6.2

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Thanks in advance!

Great combo it should work without problem check our guides in the snow section, you can also check the HCL and google for more info about your mobo, good luck and dont forget to report back your progress

I'm planning on getting a similar setup, except maybe a different Video card (GTS 250). I was wondering if there are any guides on setting up a hardware RAID controller/card with this mobo? and on any os version. Or is it even possible?

I'd like to try doing a RAID 0 setup with a SSD and a HDD, if at all possible?

Yeh theres guides to setup RAID.
