Hello guys!

 

Would you like to help choose hardware for my custom Hackintosh PC?

 

I would like to have it Intel style and not much expensive, maybe between 400-500 dollar. Don't include case.

PC: i5 2500K 4.2 GHz. Cooler Master Seidon 120V VER2. MSI P67A GD55 B3. 8GB Corsair RAM. Corsair TX650W. Gigabyte Windforce GTX 970.

 

Notebook: ASUS N56JN-CN038H, i7 4700HQ, 8GB RAM, GT 840M 2GB, 750 HDD 5400RPM, 15,6" 1920x1080.

I had it installed on FX-6300, AsRock 970 Extreme3 R2.0 and Sapphire R7 260X. The only one problem I had, no drivers for R7 260X...

The worst part is getting GPU drivers.

I am still planning to make mine, but waiting for drivers for my 750ti

Do you need a GPU?

Not at all, you can use onboard video card. GTX 780 is a good option.
