I'm a bit late to the Hackintosh party, and I've just installed a Hackintosh (using Kalyway 10.5.2) machine using a Shuttle SD30G2B with:
Core 2 Duo E4600 2.4GHz
2x2GB Kingston DDR2 667MHz RAM (Only 3.25GB recognized! vmad.gif )
Asus Nvidia 8500GT Silent (Fan-less) 256MB Video Card
Realtek High Definition Audio (ALC888)
Maxtor 250GB SATA HDD
Pioneer DVD-115 RW
Dell E228 WFP Monitor
Linksys Wireless USB WUSB54G v4.0 (Got this 4 years ago and was just sitting in a box)

Managed to get the 8500GT driver installed and with VGA output at 1680x1050. Couldn't get DVI output to work with the native 1680x1050 resolution for the Dell E228WFP Monitor. With DVI, only 1024x768 works. Will have to live with VGA output for the moment.

I got all the help I needed from the forum at http://www.insanelymac.com/ and http://wiki.osx86project.org/. Everything was working after 2 nights of tinkering.

DIY , test it yourself. If it works , it will. Hackintoshses supports a lot of updates

just updated mine to OSX 10.5.4 and it went smooth !

I'm running a hackintosh with a Core 2 Duo processor using the vanilla kernel. Software Update to OS X 10.5.4 went smoothly for me too.
