Building a Homebrew Mac Pro with EFI-X..Part 2
December 4th, 2008
Parts
So the EFI-X website has lots of parts to choose from. I have settled for the following:
- Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3R
- Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 (2.40GHz)
- Radeon HD 3870 Video Card
- 2x2GB 800Mhz RAM
- LG DVD Burner (SATA)
- 2X500GB Hitachi HD (SATA)
- Cooler Mater 550W Power Supply
- Cooler Master Case
I hadn’t assembled a computer in a while, and it was fun to get my “hands dirty” again.
I got the hardware from various sources. At the time I purchased them, Amazon, Fry’s and NewEgg where my friends. Look around for the best deals.
Next Step….Installing Mac OSX.
