Also how do you hook up your ssd?Īnother interesting observation is that you are running dual GPU. did you end up using any of those ports? I never knew you can replace the stock sata II to III. How do you run the sata 3 controller card to the 4 stock bays and how do you reroute the 4 stock SATA II into the optical bay, with all four of them in there. wondering if you can help me, perhaps i may have it set up as yours' if not too hard.ĭo you have the brand/model and where you buy your mSATA card (slot 2), the SATA III controller (slot 3) and your 240gb ssd? I see you have quite a set up with your MP. I haven't checked my post regarding my MP.'til now. I responded to this but it was deleted.I guess i must have violated a rule. Anyone have any experiences with this? or any suggestions to improve my current setup? Planning to get an Apricorn Velocity Solo x2 Extreme () to eliminate sata and power cables. Unfortunately, the power to drive the SSD is in the DVD rom area so I'd have to run an extension power cable to where the pcie slot. Should I add on another 18GB 667Mhz or would 32GB 800Mhz will make a noticeable difference that it's worth shelling $$$ to upgrade?ģ) put in a SATA PCIe 2.0 controller card (in the x16 slot) to drive a 512GB SSD. The ATA ROM never did.Ģ) right now have 14GB of DDR2-5300 667Mhz. Noticed that whenever the MP boots up, the dvd rom door pops open. Wondering if anyone can help me with a few things:ġ) replaced the stock ATA DVD Rom with a SATA DVD Rom. I got a really good deal but I think it will still have a few more good years in the bag, especially with a few upgrades.

The appearance of your actual modules may vary.Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's GuideĪfter a few years with Hackintosh scenes, I've decided to plunge and get a dinosaur Mac Pro 2008 3.1. Our memory will also mate perfectly with Apple original DIMMs.
The kit consists of identical brand/model/spec IC's, with matching batch numbers. Matched Modules: Ramjet kits contain a matched set of DIMMs.
Our heat sink runs 7 degrees cooler than the folded plate design, and 15 degrees cooler than the flat spreader design of heat sink. Other brands use heat sink types that cause overheating leading to increased fan usage and slower performance. Heat Sinks: Ramjet uses the only heat sink certified by Apple for use in the Mac Pro.
