Hackintosh Build - Need advice

[obiwan_ralinoro]

Hello LTT user,

I'm currently saving in order to build a hackintosh, mainly for school (maybe dualbooted with Win10 later).

For now, I came up with these parts:

-Silverstone Fortress Ft03S mini (must be the case)

-MSI H97I AC

-Intel Core i5 4590

-Crucial Ballistix DDR3 1600mhz 8go

-Samsung Serie Evo 120go

-Western Digital Green Desktop 1To

-Silverstone Strider ST45SF - 450w 80+ bronze

No need of a graphic card, I own one. My budget is 700euros (around 856 US Dollars)

So is this OK? Or can something be upgraded without costing much more?

I'd suggest a gigabyte MOBO for a hackintosh build

I was looking for another good looking case, and I found the Xigmatek Nebula, what you guys think about it? I'm worried about the fact that there is only one exhaust fan no possibility to put others. Also if I put a Gigabyte Gtx 970 Mini in it would it be to hot inside?
