Has anyone used the Intel integrated graphics in a Hackintosh build with this? One site said that it was 'untested' which instills fear and doubt.

I've built eight machines with this MB. I do use a dedicated GPU, but can tell you the onboard graphics work as a Hackintosh. Only with a digital screen though. Will not using DVI to analog.

I'm using this mobo with unibeast. Integrated graphics work great. The Wi-Fi doesn't work but everything else does. I found my multibeast settings from a post.

The Intel HD graphics is on the motherboard. You could add an additional graphics card to one of the PCI-e slots but it would probably have to be a 'half-height' card. I did a little research on this but decided to wait and see if it would even be necessary first. So far the integrated graphics have worked just fine as I'm able to play HD (*.ts) video files full screen without any issues. Once I start editing HD (Blu-Ray) video files, it may become necessary to add a video card but I don't know the answer to that yet.

Did you try watching movies from your mac? Are you happy with the viewing experience? Any kind of jittering... etc? I am just worried about the video card on the mini, it is the intel on board 9400 I guess. iMac comes with 256M/512M NVIDEA/ATI cards. What other features do you rate the most?

It will work only with Intel Motherboards and as far as graphics I will not choose AMD chipsets (you can use an onboard Intel graphics, or any external card but not AMD chipsets)

It is not integrated or on board- its a separate graphics card. Manufacturer? No idea.

To be perfectly honest, I don't think this KIRFy thing will ever play nice with OSX. After trying three or four different mapping programs to get me some TF2 on my new Mac, I ended up just throwing boot camp with windows 7 on it and playing everything from there. It's not my ideal solution, but I just didn't feel like it was worth any more of my time to try and to get it working properly with all of that Cupertino wizardry.

No, there is no onboard graphics. It will use the built in graphics on your CPU if your CPU has it.

Yes, I did. My 27" dual core gave me video problems, Apple allowed me to upgrade to the i5 quad core. I moved the Crucial chips to the new system. It also was a bit flaky but I traced it to a QuickTime problem. I ran the extended hardware diagnostics (1 hour memory test) the Crucial as well as OEM chips scored perfect. My problems were unrelated to the memory, it works fine. These problems were more "version 1.0" issues. It did give me a chance to sample Apple's customer service, and the experience was outstanding, exceeding all expectations.

It comes with drivers for intel macs. I have not installed it on my little macbook, I am using it on a XP tower which has more hard drive space...

I don't use my MBP for gaming, but I do use it for processor-intensive video editing, for hours at a time. FWIW, I haven't encountered any heat-related issues when using the mTower with an separate Lightning display.

Not sure about pre-intel. I have a 3-monitor set-up on 4 different mac-mini's in our sales office. At times the display link can be flaky but for the most part they were great. Be sure to update the firmware.

I have the AMD one, and so far it's worked like a charm! I can't find anything wrong with the graphics at all.

Intel Graphics info is correct. It does not have a separate graphics card as far as I remember.

Haven't done much but very smooth and fast. Wife is graphic designer and she cannot bog it down with anything. Photoshop, illustrator, etc. which are big programs using high GPU, and she says it's faster then her high end Apple rig at work. (Don't have her work specs though, but is very new)

A few months ago, I built a computer with an Intel i7-2600k, GTX 570, Asus Maximus IV Extreme and a HAF X. Best yet. It has more power by far than a Quadro 2000. As long as CS6 supports my card, I'm certain that I can run it far better with my GTX 570. If not, I'll find something that can alter the code that will let me use my 570.BTW, my 570 runs CS5.5 premiere perfectly and in realtime.Thanks :)~asuperpower

Just an FYI for anyone who has a similar problem, all that needs to be done is download the latest graphics drivers from the AMD website (we are not allowed to link external links here, else I would direct link it.) The default Windows ones don't seem to have everything up to snuff. All units produced after 12/15 will not have this issue.

I'd be wary. I bought this same OCZ for our Macbook (Late 2007) (Core2Duo 2.0) and it didn't work. I ended up returning it for Kingston.
