Lion is around the corner, might as well wait for it. I've no idea if it will be available on separate download or will it need a Mac to download it.

10.3 = Panther .. no idea if it will support your hardware.

If you're going for VM way, wait for Lion, it should be available hopefully from today. SL license doesn't allow you to run it under VM unless if you've the server license.

@Cold|Drawn, everything else seems to be fine except the 6670 which is not supported in SL, no idea in Lion tho'.

@cold|drawn,

If you search for 6670, some has got it to work by flashing the ROM using the 5770 ROM. Some successfully use it after fiddling with the extension, I believe this is not the way going forward. Why not go for 5770 and avoid all the hassle.

On the motherboard, I couldn't give much opinion on it. Z68 is actually an H67 with overclocking ability. Since you're thinking of overclocking (by choosing i5/2500K), H67 is not meant for you really. For overclocking, go for either P67 or Z68 .. and I believe you got the answer already
