Informatoque Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Hello everybody, So firstly I would like to say that my english is not the best ( I'm speaking french), but I'm gonna try... So my question is: I have an AMD Athlon 3200 + 2.20 Ghz with 512 Mb of ram and I would like to know if it will work with the last snow leopard version and if it is not, is there a processor with the same socket type working with snow leopard ? Thank you in advance. Informatoque Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/240615-is-it-possible-for-my-processor-to-work/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giorgio_multi Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Try to install a snow leopard version (i.e. snow hazard), the PC don't bursts if the hardware is not compatible!

Hagar Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Athlon/Athlon XP has no sse2, so no. Athlon64 is minimum for any version of OS X Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/240615-is-it-possible-for-my-processor-to-work/#findComment-1607355 Share on other sites More sharing options...
