Simple, understated looks, and good build quality. It's still a pretty good choice, and the XFX version with two fans is relatively quiet.Д¬ase: Fractal Design Define R3 Black Pearl, Noiseblocker eLoop Bionic B12-1 (2x) At the time it was the best-performing GPU that worked well with OS X Lion. Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3-1600 CL8 KitД¬orsair memory served me well in the past, and the 1600MHz CL8 modules support a faster XMP mode, which is also supported by the mainboard.ДЄctually, I had bought this graphics card in November 2011 and used it in my previous Hackintosh. At that point I learned that not only volume but also static pressure is important when selecting fans for radiators. The only change I made was to get a different, much more quiet, fan for the radiator.

It ships fully assembled, doesn't need maintenance, never mind refilling, and is as easy to install as an air cooler. I wasn't quite ready to build a proper water cooling system so I went for a closed-loop solution from Corsair. To leave me the option to experiment with overclocking while maintaining a relatively quiet machine I decided to try water cooling.

This is cheaper because it doesn't include a basic cooler and fancy packaging I didn't need either.Д¬PU Cooler: Corsair Hydro Series H60, Noiseblocker BlackSilentPRO PL-PS If you look closely at the picture on the right you can see that I got the tray version of the CPU. It has 4 cores with 8 parallel execution threads, a clock frequency of 3.9GHz in turbo mode, and it can be overclocked although overclocking an Ivy Bridge CPU seems to be a whole different story. I learned that lesson with the more exotic board I chose for my first Hackintosh.Д®ven though the improvements in Intel's new Ivy Bridge processors are not as relevant in desktop use as they are in laptops it still makes sense to go for the latest processor generation. Judging from the reports on the forums I'm not the only one, which is a plus, too, because it means that there are other people who can help. The Z77X-UP5 TH is one of the high-end boards, has very compatible sound, network, and USB3 hardware, and it has two Thunderbolt ports. Playing into this was the expiry of the deal Apple and Intel had regarding Thunderbolt. The choice here wasn't obvious because Gigabyte offers so many boards. The chipset choice was easy, Intel's Z77 Express is the 'performance' chipset for the new Ivy Bridge processors. Rule #1 for building a Hackintosh: use an Intel CPU and Intel chipset.

This means the machine is not completely comparable to a Mac Pro, but from a performance perspective it clearly is. I did not get into workstation technology such as Intel Xeon processors or EEC RAM. Most of the parts are high-end desktop parts. The cost for the hardware was still only around в‚¬1500 in total. Having a longer term perspective meant that I considered high-end parts. This time round I was much more confident and I'm fully expecting to get three or more years out of my new Hackintosh again. When I built it I was a bit cautious because I didn't know whether a Hackintosh would work for me or whether it would be replaced by an Apple machine a few months later. Even worse, in 2012 the Mac Pros are not only expensive but they are quite outdated, too, from a technical perspective and the only response from Apple to widespread criticism after WWDC was a promise to release something in 2013.ДЄt the same time the experience with my previous Hackintosh was great. The reasons I had in 2009 not to buy another Apple tower are still valid. The xMac gap still exists in the Apple product line. В© 2012-2020 Mulle kybernetiK - text by erik
