guys, are these benchmark scores decent enough, or is there anything else that i can tweak? too bad the 560ti is not natively supported, should've scored higher fps with it imo

nice scores bro!! cpu at stock? single gpu? i guess i've hit my limit with my 2 year old rig..sandy bridge is naisss!!

read a few of ur post couple of months back that u're planning to set up the 2600k rig, i guess u got what u wanted! but i can't recall the spec of ur previous rig, was it a 920 like me?
i'm not used to ati graphics, for example the $380 6770 gigabyte card..is it more or less the same as ur card or can i expect a higher gpu acceleration with it?
what prog u use to monitor ur cpu and gpu temps? i'm looking for something similar like real temp and hwmonitor..thanks bro!

the maximum that i can go with the 920 is 4.2, beyond that my pc won't even start..
i guess it's related to my overclock settings and the mobo that i use..
nevertheless my 24/7 oc is just at 3.8 so i'm not that worried bout the temp..

the thing that got me into hackintosh is just to see how much my rig fare against those machines from apple, one of those 'because u can do it' thingy..
but really, i can't seem to find a use for a mac..yeah it's pretty, neat, cool factor..but still i find that i do things faster on a windows..
well maybe i'm used to the windows environment for so long, using a macosx just make me confused..i don't do graphic works, cad etc..
after the hassle browsing forums, installing macosx and making sure it runs fine, i'm at a dead end..
what i'm going to do with my macosx? care to shed some light?

that's quite a history there bro! at least, hackintoshing made me learn quite a few stuffs like ahci, linux commands, overclocking..and made kp my worst enemy haha..

never before that i get to use macosx, let alone touch a real mac..wasn't justified enough for me to burn cash buying a real mac..all in all success on setting up a hackintosh is sweet!

still, not knowing what the hell to do with lion, some crazy idea crossed my mind, a hackintosh mini! somehow i felt like it's an addiction now..these are the specs and rough pricing..

quick question, does EVGA GeForce GT 620 works? googled and it's listed to work on ML, but i didn't come across anyone intalled ML using this card..and can anyone recommend another low end card to be used in ML..thanks!

planned build

CORE I5 3450
GIGABYTE Z77P-D3
EVGA GeForce GT 620
8GB Corsair XMS3 1600Mhz DDR3
1TB HDD
DELL U2312HM 23" IPS LED MONITOR
Generic case and power supply

undecided between 220, 520, 620..wanted to take the 620 coz its a newer card and all the hype that ml's native support for the 6xx series..still can't confirm it though

yepp, read it already..it's just that i've never seen/read someone actually installed mountain lion using this card
