I have been able to successfully install Lion on this system, but I cannot get drivers to work for ethernet.

Take a look at my post for this mobo includes instructions for getting Ethernet to work:

Thank you!~ Only problem now is getting dual dvi on my XFX 5770. I'm considering a Gigabyte HD6850..would that work better?

I got the 6870 working fine

JBlongz, what 6870 did you buy? I am considering building a hackintosh, but I have a problem decidining what 6870 to buy. I wanted to buy a Sapphire but not any Sapphire. I was told to buy a card with the following output port layout:

1 x HDMI
2 x Mini DisplayPort
2 x DVI

With this output port layout, I can't find a Sapphire card, but Kakewalk has a build with a similar card. Does anyone know what to buy? Thanks.

Newegg no longer sells it, but all the specs are listed there.

It is pretty bad that newegg doesn't sell it any more

JBlongz

Well thats because AMD has lots of new models coming out. Newegg regularly phases out high end cards. It serves very well feeding two 24" HDMI monitors via miniDP adapters on Hackintosh with FCPX, AE, Cinema4D. There's another card that has 5 minidp ports that is always no longer sold at Newegg. I'm tempted to try: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150574
