For AMD, a hackintosh is a no go, but even with AMD its possible to run Mac OS X in a VM. The virtual machines I have posted in my guides are very snappy and well optimized. Check em out.

Yes. The easiest way to do this would be to install OS X on a separate physical hard drive. Once you have successfully established your hackintosh. Then every time you power on your PC simply tap F8(its usually F8) to select which HDD to boot from. From that menu, select the HDD which has...

Nope, haven't ever compiled a DSDT. I managed to get everything working on my desktop PC with just Multibeast. Its great that you managed to get everything working. Not waking up from sleep is a problem on a laptop, but not as big as no wifi connectivity. I haven't been able to get WiFi...

Ya, unfortunately you are correct. The problem is that a new install of OS X on a VM wont be as snappy as this one. For my guide for a native install on a PC I use and recommend a app store purchased copy. Hackintosh guide: Mac OS X Mountain Lion Hackintosh Guide « Understanding Existence .net...

As far as the height of the modules is concerned, its not an issue cos ill be using water cooling. The voltage is 1.5 and i wanted to play it safe this time around. Hopefully the 2 septate 4Gb modules will work without a problem in duel channel mode. In my last build i has 2 different ram...

ipad 2 is an idiot proof toy. That is, its easy to use but not too many out of the box features. Sure it has more apps. Honeycomb is for the power user like most of the ppl on this forum are expected to be. Its an OS designed specifically for the tablets. On the other hand the iOS is now...

I have ordered for two 4 Gb Vengeance sticks from SMC @ 2600 each. I wanted G.skill ripjaws X, but that wasnt in stock. The ram i ordered are 2 independent sticks and not a kit, but i dont think that should be a problem at all running them in duel channel.

Ya that is a symptom of failing HDD. Download and run the tests in the programs i gave links to and then u would know for sure.. --- Updated Post - Automerged --- Also IMMEDIATELY take back up of all imp HDD data as it will go from few freezes every now and then to totally unusable very...

I know about the hight of this ram but ill most probably be getting a water cooling solution for cpu. Air coolers are very big and ugly..and have lower effeciency. Of course the price premium is there too.. And ya i think ill try getting the 2x4Gb kit. Although my budget is already overshooting...

@OP Most probably it looks like a failing HDD. One sign for that can be that ur mouse pointer doesnt get stuck when the rest of the system freezes up. Does that happen? Also run quick tests in the following programs to check HDD: 1.)Official Seagate HDD health checker: SeaTools for Windows...

Respect! Thank u for the awesome explanation, link. I am sure it will help so many people on this forum. Heh heh..thanks. :) I dont think the Vengeance series was made for SB, it has been around for long time. Its just that it it hi-perf low voltage RAM. I think getting Vengeance is the best...

I know all Vengeance are @ 1.5v so they seem to be the safest bet. I am surprised so many ppl are building Sandy Bridge bades systems here and nobody is rasing this issue. Its clearly specified by intel that 1.5v is recomended for 24/7 use. There must be a reason behind it. Most of the people...

Hey everybody..ill be buying my new SB system in next 3-5 days. I realized that SB mobos RAM @ 1.5volt is recommended. But RAM @ 1.65 v is easily available in the market. Although RAM @ 1.65v would work..it would be really pushing it as Intel specification gives 1.575v as the upper limit(thank...

I dont think GTX 570 twin frozr III is easily available in India. I have been reading about different brand offerings of GTX 570 from almost a month now. Ill be buying mine in a week. Palit GTX 570 sonic platinum turns out to have great reviews.(Google it) Also it has highest factory OC and...

Hey everybody..pls post the customer care number of WD. Also please tell me about their pick up service. I hace two 2Tb HDDs lying around defective.

Ya but i am one of those people who dont do any extreme OC on own but rather prefer factory OCed cards. Plus in western countries even if u blow up ur card, u have an excellent RMA system. In India we have horrible after sales services. So thats why stay away from anything that is above mild OC...

^^Pls elaborate on this. I went to ctc last week for reconnaissance and they told me that the Palit 570 sonic platinum as well as twin forzr II is available. Now im not sure if they were just 'saying it' cos a potential customer was in front or there 2 were actually available. Also i dont want...
