Its so sexy in my case with my huge CPU cooler and my GTX 760 that I am using to display Linux, they are not running in SLI.

Does anyone want a picture of my Desktop? It has more copper visible in its window then actual components lol

I'd love to see it. :D For a brief time my main rig had a good amount of copper tubing from the CPU heatsink, GPU heatsink, and heatsinks on the motherboard, but now most of that's in my Hackintosh. :P

Speaking of which, I should really get that thing up and going again. I'd like to get El Capitan running at the very least, since it's required for OpenEmu.


What CPU and GPU are you running? If you're running pure Intel, you should be fine. If you're running AMD, you're in for a LOT of headaches.

My Hackintosh is a Core 2 Duo on an ASUS P5KC motherboard. The video card is an AMD Radeon HD 5770, and surprisingly this card seems to be well supported under OS X. I had problems with the motherboard's onboard sound though, as well as the SATA controller. The last version of OS X I tried on it was a hacked version of Yosemite that i couldn't successfully update.

What support chips are on this board? Intel ICX? If it's Intel support chips, there should be no problem. Anything else, like VIA and nVidia, are going to be nothing but trouble. (Speaking from long bitter experience trying to get OS X running on an AMD CPU with nVidia support chips in the not too distant past.)

It has a VIA chip for IEEE 1394 support, but I don't really plan on using that. Fortunately, it has enough PCI-E slots that I can probably install additional cards if need be.

From what I'm seeing, this board uses Intel ICH-8 as its north and southbridge, so you should be OK. Realtek audio may be a bit of a problem.

What would you suggest for a compatible audio device? Should I use an external DAC?

Honestly, is there anybody out there that still believes that one day, it'll come back and say, "We found a solution to your problem!"?

Hi Kraftie. No, it's surprisingly warm at the moment. It's 10:56pm and I'm still sitting at my dining room table in shorts and nothing on the top. Tomorrow's supposed to be really cold. Good thing it's Saturday. I get to stay indoors all day.

I saw the same thing from 95 to 98. You were probably still in your cot back then.

Go on. Get it off your chest. It'll make you feel better.

Alright, so about a year ago, I ended up getting a message from my friend from another site, (NT bestie I knew from school, BTW.) she said to get back on Instagram or she wouldn't be my BFF anymore. I wasn't allowed to go on there, and besides, I hated the app with a passion, but I went on another site and said she would have to settle for that. She went freaking ballistic and said she would start crap at school about me when Summer Break was over. I stayed on the other site for a while, did a few roleplays, and left. I haven't heard anything about what happened, but it occurred to me a few days ago that her and all of the others would be starting high school this fall. That made me really sad, cause I couldnt struggle through with her as friends, something we had dreamed about since kindergarten. I also saw my old boyfriend at walmart and broke down crying as soon as he couldn't see me. Sometimes I think, 'if I could travel back in time and tell myself whats been going on lately, would she have my head?' I mean, I wanted to be a fashion designer from NYC, just like Style Savvy. But now, all I turned out to be is a Pokemon obsessed 14 year old who still hasnt gotten over her boyfriend from a year and a half ago, and tries to cover it up by playing dress up as a Pokemon trainer and pretends to date a fictional character? God, I cant do anything right.
