Why not use Linux? It'll run better than Mac.

 

No case included in this build btw.

Intel NUCs are usually pretty compatible- or something like a Zotac ZBox.

Just google the components to make sure they're compatible, if you're not sure.

Please stop posting random pcpartpicker lists / component recommendations.

A Hackintosh needs special components to work you can´t just throw in a cpu / motherboard etc.

Rewatch Linus´ Hackintosh Buildguide and research the blogs in the desc. for stuff that fits your budget.

Just sayin: Hackintoshs are mostly very unstable and bleeding edge, also its hard to set them up
