Building a CustoMac: Buyer's Guide 2012Posted by tonymacx86 on Thursday, August 02, 2012Labels: Core i5, Core i7,CustoMac,Ivy Bridge,Mac, Mountain Lion, OS X, Socket 2011It's an amazing time once again to build a computer. Intel's "Ivy Bridge" CPUs alongside with the latestmotherboards are the fastest and most compatible consumer components we've ever tested. There is nativesupport for Thunderbolt, NVIDIA GeForce 6xx "Kepler" graphics cards, and Ivy Bridge in OS X Mountain Lion10.8.On the pro front, Apple hasn't updated their Mac Pro since 2010, but Intel's "Sandy Bridge-E/EP" has nativekernel support. Socket 2011 CPUs are available in quad core, hexacore, and octacore (Sandy Bridge-EPXeon only) options. Maximum RAM on single socket LGA-2011-based motherboards is 128 GB, making theplatform ideal for tasks that need extra headroom. In comparison, Socket 1155 is capable of 32 GB of RAM.These no compromise supercomputers may never be fully optimized for power management, but they are themost powerful.For maximum ease of use with guides and methods, we put together some generalhardware recommendations. These might not be the only components that work, but based on our researchthey're the easiest and most supported options. Use these as a jumping off point or as a shopping list.

If you're building a CustoMac,it's an especially tricky decision. Not only do you have to worry about what will be a good performer for the cost, but you also have to be informed about what is fully supported, and what is not. The following graphics card examples are all natively compatible without modifying drivers. Each gives a range of port options, install compatibility, and is known to work with minimal configuration. Furthermore, using the Chimera bootloader,it's now possible to use multiple NVIDIA cards in tandem - dual and triple cards are enabled by default.GeForce GT 640PCIe-powered 900 MHz Clock for low power & quiet use.Amazon ASUS , EVGA Gigabyte , MSIPNYNewegg ASUS , EVGA Gigabyte , MSI PNY , ZotacGeForce GTX 560 Ti Mid-range card with high performance.Amazon ASUS , EVGAGigabyte , MSI Newegg ASUS , EVGA Gigabyte , MSI PNY , Zotac GeForce GTX 660 TiMid to high end performance card.Amazon ASUS , EVGA Gigabyte , MSIPNY , Zotac Newegg ASUS , EVGA ,Gigabyte , MSI ,PNY , Zotac GeForce GTX 670StandardHigh end - our top recommendation.Amazon ASUS , EVGA Gigabyte , MSIPNY , ZotacNewegg ASUS , EVGA ,Gigabyte , MSI ,PNY , ZotacGeForce GTX 670UpgradedHigher graphics clock speed.AmazonASUS, EVGAGigabyte, MSINeweggASUS, EVGAMSIGeForce GTX 680StandardThe top end card.AmazonEVGAGigabyte, MSIPNY, ZotacNeweggASUS, EVGA,Gigabyte, MSI,PNY, ZotacGeForce GTX 680UpgradedHigher graphics clock speed.AmazonASUS, EVGAMSI, ZotacNeweggEVGA, MSI, Zotac*Some users reporting sleep/wake issues in Mountain Lion.Ivy Bridge Socket 1155 Desktop CPUsIntel Core i7-3770K3.5Ghz4 Cores / 8 Threads, TurboUnlocked for OverclockingAmazon NeweggIntel Core i7-37703.4Ghz4 Cores / 8 Threads, Turbo Amazon NeweggIntel Core i5-3570K3.4Ghz4 Cores / 4 Threads, TurboUnlocked for OverclockingAmazon NeweggGigabyte MotherboardsWe recommend these specific Gigabyte motherboards because of native power management support, network, and audio.
