In this video a kid, he looks twelve talks about some hackintosh basics and then show you a demo of the Intel Core i5 hackintosh that he has built. C’mon if this kid can build on…you can too.
The guys at Jupiter Broadcasting has been nice enough to do 2 videos, total 2.5 hours… that goes into real detail on how to perform a retail DVD Mac OS X Snow Leopard install on the hardware below:
johnnythegeek1 describes his new 10.6.5 Snow Leopard budget system setup with Nvidia 8400GT graphics card, Intel E6500 (2.93 Ghz dual core) and 500 GB SATA hard drive and also 3GB Corsair RAM.
Here is another Hackintosh OSX86 PC build. This Mac OSX Leopard build on PC hardware was done by one of my co-workers, let’s call him “Leon” for the total cost of $350. At the heart of this budget PC build is a Gigabyte motherboard. Gigabyte brand motherboards have been found to be one of the most Mac OS X operating system friendly. This particular hackintosh build was done using the Gigabyte motherboard model EP45-UD3L (Intel P45 chipset).
MacOSXonPC.com believes that people shouldn't pay such high prices for Apple computer hardware with such low hardware specifications, when you are able to take advantage of the stability and ease of use of the Mac OS X operating system with affordable and powerful PC hardware.
Ask yourself, if you can build a powerful Quad Core Intel CPU computer with 4 GB of RAM, and powerful NVidia Graphics running Mac OS X Leopard natively for less than $500 why wouldn't you?
A similar specification from Apple for a Mac Pro desktop starts at $2499 on the Apple website.
