Just a quick video to demonstrate how quick Snow Leopard starts up on a Core i7 machine (Core i7 920 @ 4ghz) 6GB DDR3 RAM @ 1600mhz :)

@heavenofficial

Apple hardware?

@heavenofficial Not true heaven, I know a few fags(they don't care about mac or pc title) that O/C their shit and bump the most extreme scores on the benchmarks for osx, and If you check anysite that has mac benchmarks, a hackintosh is first place. But those guys don't have anything better to do with their lives but eat, sleep and breath tech shit.... people like us on the other hand have other things to do...

@richardsim7 Damn, was wondering if someone has Snow Leopard on a 5870 system yet. =(

you cant compare pc to a mac pro.., thats a server machine, you may compare the server/desktop from dell if you want, but any server would still be more powerful than a single core i7 build.

you can take the new imac +a led monitor for a right comparison, at last the spec there are very similar..overall "apple hardware" doesnt exist, is all about design and EFI more than tha a mac is a pc, use intel cpu and ati/nvidia gpu also standard ddr3 and hdd, with right mobo, you can use osx without issue

@heavenofficial True true. It was a retail install, yeah :)

[heavenofficial]

@richardsim7 Well I'm not speaking entirely to you I mean in general it runs best on 100% Apple hardware. That's a great thing if you can get it to run like yours, most people can't. Also, how did you get it on there? Was it from the Mac CD or torrent?

[richardsim7]

@heavenofficial You've lost me, this machine runs like wildfire, using very similar hardware to that which Apple uses, how can it be not as fast? :p
