Good place to start.

It's that simple? Just like installing Windows?

Usually yes, BUT, you should watch a few youtube vidoes because of the motherboards BIOS and that, you should do some research on it before you continue.

if you want to do this LEGALLY, make sure you have a mac or a friend that has one to copy the OS and format the drive to mac journaled

Apple's ToS makes it illegal to install OS X on unsupported hardware, but this mainly only matters if you did it in an enterprise environment. You can basically get a bootable ISO for a virtualbox or a copy of OS 10.6 + iBoot for easy manual installation in virtualbox. Then you can use the virtualbox to create a 10.8 or 10.9 bootable installer USB. Sounds a bit complicated, but thats how I got around the not having a machine with OS X at the time.

TonyMacx86 is a good place to start, look up general tutorials and then read the posts from people have similar / same hardware config.

Good luck.

I gave up.

I think you went the wrong way, you need a modded kernel for your cpu! Head over to rampagedev. There you find anything you need.

I run a hackintosh with a i7 4930k and a 780 without any problem.

Its also important to copy the modded cpu not only to your USB stick but also on the ssd itself. Without that you will get a black screen!

For boot commands you might need to add GraphicsEnabler=No and -v -x if i remembered correctly

I'll give a second shot soon, I was running all kinds of VMs experimenting and lost enthusiasm 

Head over to RampageDev, he supports your motherboard! Also he has great support! For me all worked fine
