everything should work except for I'm not 100% sure about the wifi card. It's free from my friend. I've got a Bluetooth keyboard so I'll

probably have to get a cheap USB keyboard for setting up macOS

Wanted a Radeon rx 580 or 480 because then I can use freesync but heard they had some issues with Mac OS when it was waking from sleep. But I may just go that route and use integrated graphics for Mac OS since all my gaming will be in the windows dual boot

No, 10xx series cards work fine with the beta driver, and a full driver is coming soon.
