My plan is to finally attempt it tonight. Just got a deal on a 90W MSI GTX 9500 graphics card with 3 DisplayPort outs, which arrived a couple days ago. Going to try to power it with 2 SATA power ports. Will let you know how that goes. Also got a 16GB RAM kit to upgrade to 20GB and a 960GB Sandisk Ultra II SSD.What has been your experience installing El Capitan on the 8300 ? Have you attempted it yet ?
Still need to get a Bluetooth adapter for my Magic Trackpad and a USB sound adapter (if I can't get HDMI sound working). Will be ordering and adding those after I get the system up and running (or is it better to do everything all at once?).
Will let you know how things go.
