This is a component level hardware compatibility list. We want to keep it as accurate as possible, but please, do not entirely rely on this list when buying hardware. Add which parts you have working in the categories listed below, or create a new category. Please keep alphabetical order inside the categories. The categories themselves are ordered by popularity. Please list any caveats or problems as well.
- ONLY add hardware that you have TESTED. Don't add hardware just because you think it might work.
- Please add hardware into tables.
- This is for 10.5.6 builds only.

9.5.0 voodoo kernel, EFI v9, Cameleon 1.0.12 | Yes, almost all functions working (lan, audio, usb, start/shutdown, time machine) but only after following the procedure outlined here. Unable to wake from sleep (even with current bios ver. 18). Have not tested PS/2 ports. Needed to install a SATA DVD burner to rip/burn DVD/CD's without getting kernal panic. Also, needed to use the ToH 9.2.0 kernel [5] in order to successfully launch Parallels without kernel panic. |

If you have the 9.5.0 kernel you will need the Seatbelt.kext from 10.5.5 If you have the 9.6.0 kernel you will need the Seatbelt.kext from 10.5.6" iPC install contains 9.5.0 version, just add it at customize. Seatbelt.kext Issues so far:
Fix for 1 CPU issue: download a modified bios, [6] choose file 4CoreDual-SATA2 v2.10 After you flashed the bios, you can simply install it without the need of the cpus=1 One Core fix, and can use both(or more) cores of your cpu ;)

EFI & Bootloader (out of the box), Voodoo 9.5.0 kernel + nvDarwin | OS reports a Mac Pro 3.1: Shutdown, Restart works. Logitech G15 Keyboard fully functional. Still running on one core (will update when DSDT is working). The MOST important thing in the install is to ensure NO device is connected to the JMicron controller. Your installation drive should be connected to port0 of the ICH10R, put your DVD drive wherever as long as it is on the ICH10R. If you have a pre-built RAID, don't be concerned as adding devices will not affect the RAIDs integrity (as long as you leave all member disks attached). You might need to use the Intel RAID control panel from within Windows to mark the "Non-member" disk as a "Non-RAID" disk, otherwise it will be invisible. Thanks to ASUS, for ignoring every question I submited.

No, Voodoo 9.5.0 that came with iPC 10.5.6 (PPF5) | Needs patching for the following: USB 2.0, restart/shutdown, PS2 ports, HD Icon (show as removable device) | |
| GA-EP45-DQ6 | Intel P45 + ICH10R | Installation RETAIL 10.5.6 (9G66)
|
Yes | Fully working but require these kexts Patched AppleHDA.kext, dsmos.kext, HDAenabler.kext, OpenHaltRestart.kext, SMBIOSEnabler.kext , kexts for PS2fix etc. | |
| GA-EG31m-s2 | Intel G31/ ICH7 | Use IPC Universal Final, no kernal selected (9.6 by default), no graphics card selected (i use geforce 9600 gso and used NVdarwin installer 1.2.5). Sound was not working but later fixed with alc888 using osx86 tools by pcwiz. I had issues with shutdowdown and time machine which I think were related to having an on board network card and a pci wireless I used efistudio tomake a string for my pci wireless and this fixed those problems mostly. Shutdow doesnt turn my fans off but time machine is flawless. Other issues were a buggy jumpy mouse which was fixed by downgrading to previous quicktime version using pacifist. Other issues unidentified proccessor I used AboutThisMac to fix it. | Yes | ||
| GA-EP45-DS3L & -DS3LR rev 1.0 | Intel P45 ICH10 sound very hapy5+1 with voodoo hda.kekxt | This board is very compatible. It works nicely with 10.5.5, and 10.5.6. With 10.5.6, sleep shuts down the computer, that is the only bug so far. Other than that you can perform a full retail fresh 10.5.6 install with a real retail DVD with this guide. The guide uses a Core2 Quad 2.66, all hardware works fine except there are advantages to using the recommended network card.

Yes | Yes, with supplied kexts | |
| GA-EP45-DS3P | Intel P45 ICH10 | Installed with iPC OSx86 10.5.6 Universal PPF5 Final
ALL DONE! |
Yes | Without kexts no audio and crappy video | |
| GA-EP45-DS4P | Intel P45 ICH10 | Install using iatkos 5i 10.5.5, select additional OHR to fix power management, select drivers. After installation, use Kext Help 7b and Taruga_Leopard_alc88x to get audio work. Then apply software update to 10.5.6. (Use RTL1xxx_1.02.pkg to fix Ethernet). (Apply Taruga_Leopard_alc88x again). Use EFIStudio to add AGP, Ethernet, HDEF. Done.
IDE dvd drives do not seem to work when installing, try if thats all you have, but use SATA |
Yes | PS/2 seems not working with either PS/2 driver or x86ACPI] | |
| GA-EP45-UD3P | Intel P45 ICH10R | Install using retail 10.5.6 and this guide. It is the only guide that has everything working properly. Don't use an older guide for 10.5.6. You MUST have SATA DVD and HDD and use the yellow SATA ports. If you have an ATI card, you might have to boot install disc in safe mode - depends if install disc has your device ID. You can add device ID to install disc if you know how. [20] instructions are in the RTF file. No trial and error necessary. | Yes | Audio and Lan work perfectly ONLY with this guide. Shutdown, restart, sleep: perfect. Speedstep not working, but there is probably a fix for that. latest Rev 1.6 mobo speedstep works, Time Machine works. | |

I did not test the ethernet because i use the USB wireless adapter. I used Creative Audigy, so I just enabled ALC889A for a backup :P. | Yes | Mouse/Keyboard US working OTB with USB interface, working 2 Core (OC at 3.5GHz ~ still working perfectly) | |

Yes | Core Duo 3GHz | |
| GA-G31M-ES2L | Intel G31 ICH7 | This board is SUPER compatible. I used the Boot-132 and retail 10.5.1 install with an upgrade to 10.5.6 (after installing the EFI strings for my video card). It works nicely with 10.5.5, and 10.5.6. With 10.5.6, sleep and shut down BOTH work. The onboard video works, but only at 1024x768. the NIC and USB both work out of box with nothing needed. The onboard audio works if you install the ALC883 patch. I chose to use the ASUS nVidia 9400GT 512 (info in video card section). (Edit - Used iPC 10.5.6 - worked like a dream. No additional kexts other than audio above. VGA - used XFX 7300GT 256MB with Natit Dual (see video card section))
Please Note: The LAN only works out of the box for rev 0 & 1.x of this motherboard. Rev 2 changes to a Atheros chipset, which is impossible to get working correctly. I used the Apple usb to ethernet adapter and it works great. |

| Intel DG35EC | Intel G35 with ICH8 | Install using iDeneb v1.4 10.5.6 with default Vanilla kernel. Onboard Audio ALC888 and Onboard Ethernet Card works flawlessly (with Intel 82566 series). nVidia GeForce 8800 GT 512MB works fine with both NVInject and NVdarwin, didn't check the built-in video. Have issue with restart and trying to fix. 4GB DDR2 800 detected and Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz successfully identified.
Built-in video does not work.

| Intel DG35EC | Intel G35 with ICH8 | Tried both iPC 10.5.6 Final PPF5 and iDeneb v1.4 10.5.6 with Vanilla and patched kernels. Neither would install a boot loader after multiple attempts and various selections of drivers and BIOS settings. Since the OS would load with the install DVD in the drive, I installed Chameleon 2.0RC1 from OSX and can now can boot perfectly without the DVD in the drive (using iPC and Vanilla kernel). NVinject did not seem to detect my PCI-E Jaton nVidia 7200GS properly (choppy, no hardware acceleration), but NVdarwin did. I did not try the Intel on-board video. I also had issues with every ALC888 driver included with iPC. Used NVdarwin 256MB for video, Intel ICHx SATA for chipset, Intel 82566MM/DC for LAN, and Azalia Audio for sound (without mic support though). I am also using the AppleSMBIOS-27 Rev3 800MHz SMBIOS, which matches my RAM speed. Initial shutdown/reboot problems; now solved using the included Shutdown/Restart Fix during the iPC OS install. Everything is working perfectly now except the mic jack.

| Intel D945GCLF2 | Intel® 945G with ICH7 | Install using iATKOS 5i (10.5.5) with default Vanilla kernel. Software Update to 10.5.6 works. Audio in does not work; front panel audio out does not work. Rear panel audio out and all USB ports work. Built in GMA 950 video works. "About" shows "1.6GHz Unknown".
Started with iATKOS 10.5.5, set ACPI SATA and GMA 950. everything worked, upgrade to 10.5.6 from Apple. The resolution becomes limited to 1024x768. Patch with JaS.10.4.8.GMA.950.Support.pkg that can be found in: [31]. -> resolution gets fixed. I use it as a multimedia streamer (stereo audio). Excellent for less that $100!. iAtkos V5i (10.5.5) works OOB. Update 10.5.6 works from software update menu. After update fix disk permissions and you have mac osx 10.5.6. You will need Jas.10.4.8.GMA.950.Support.pkg to enable hi res after update to 10.5.6. My Hardware configuration includes HDD 2.5 and Laptop DVD R/W. It works excellent and play Stream Videos/Music from FreeNas server to my son bedroom.Great Custom Mini Mac !!!! iDeneb v1.4 (10.5.6) works OOB. Take DSDT.aml from here.

You can use Apple Software Update to upgrade 10.5.7, but then reboot from original DVD, deselect OS install, and select all the other options again. |
No, you have to use Voodoo because SSE3 is used by the vanilla kernel, and it won't work on this computer. If Voodoo doesn't work, you'll have to pick another kernel that doesn't use SSE3 instructions. |

| GeForce 7300LE 128MB | NVIDIA | Added EFI string using OSx86Tools | QE/CL Supported | All resolutions | Native Apple GeForce and NVDA Kexts |
| GeForce 7300GT 256MB | NVIDIA | Use Natit.kext | QE/CL Supported | All resolutions | with Natit.kext |
| GeForce 7300GT 256MB | ASUS | I couldn't get it to run with NVInject, nor NVDarwin, nor Kush, or whatever. But this works! Download Universal Installer, run it, check install video driver and choose GeForce 7300GT 256RAM. Click install and restart. | QE/CL Supported | All resolutions | Yes |
| GeForce 7300GT 256MB | XFX | Installed Natit_Dual v0.02 [46] (dual verion) using UInstall. NVinject NOT successful. Both displays work all resolutions. | QE/CL Supported | All resolutions | Yes |
| GeForce 7300GT 512MB | eVGA | Patched ROM from [47]. NVinject.kext & NVKush.kext DID NOT work! Use NVDarwin if you have this card. | QE/CL Supported | All resolutions | Yes |
| GeForce 7800GT 256MB | Asus | Leo4Allv3 + NVInject 0.2.1 | QE/CL Supported | All resolutions | Yes (but TVout is not working) |
| GeForce 7800GTX 256MB | MSI | First had to remove all Nvidia and GeForce kexts, anything to do with graphics, then had to use the 9f23installer ([48]), then add the EFI string with OSX86Tools, as EFI Studio didn't have the string | QE/CL Supported | All resolutions | It does in 10.5.2, but not in 10.5.6 with 9f23install drivers, and EFI string |

| Geforce 7900 GT KO 512MB | eVGA | Was showing VESA (256MB) at boot, so I performed the following steps: 1) reflashed video EEPROM using nvflash and "hacked" ROM file from here. 2) Installed 9f23installer.pkg, then 3) Used EFIStudio to install correct EFI string to com.apple.boot.plist | QE/CL Supported | All resolutions | Yes, with added string |
| GeForce 7900 GT 512MB Sonic | Palit | 1) Darwin bootloader detected only 256MB so I had to update ROM as described here (I didn't use the one from ROM repositoty because it differed a lot from the one I dumped from my video card, so I just changed 4 bytes myself according to the instruction).
2) After that OSX successfully booted with any of (and I guess any other) NVdarwin and NVinject (check that IOProbeScore is set to 0 in Info.plist) - had to do this step to be able to do the next one since I couldn't boot even in safe mode without injectors. You may stop here if you like, HW acceleration is already supported, but I like EFI way more, so here is the next step. 3) Used OSx86Tools to add EFI string and removed all injectors. |
