I've got an MSI K9N SLI board. All works quite well, though Audio and network required workarounds. The NFORCE chipset is a bit of a bug bear at times. Currently I can only run with 1 core for maximum stability. Personally I wouldn't buy an AMD board, I'd go for an Intel set up.

yes you are right , intel seems to be the better choice , but its realy expensive !
my problem is that i dont exactly know which intel CPU is fast enaugh for osx ! i m not going to play hd games with my computer , so can you recommend me an cpu that is fast enaugh for "normal" use (maximum watching hdtv ) but not that expensive ? for intel the Gigabyte GA-EP35C-DS3R, P35 (dual PC2-6400U DDR2/dual PC3-8500U DDR3) (as some of you wrote it should work out of the box) seems to be the best one , and it would cost me around 90 € . and i realy would like to buy this one , but sadly im having this problem with choosing the right CPU ,,,so it would be realy cool if you can help me with that hell |

Depending on your budget, pretty much any Core2Duo CPU will be fast enough for general purpose computing, though obviously the faster the clock speed the better -- the E6xx series is a good place to start. OS X is very GPU dependent, so make sure you have a good 'compatible' graphics card with plenty of vram.
