Hi, I'm new here and have a few questions about building a Hackintosh.  They are:

1. Do I need a water cooler for the CPU if I don't plan to overclock it (an i7-7700K)?

2. Can you recommend a small, quiet cooler for the CPU?  (It will be installed in a Corsair Air 240 case).

3. I don't plan to do any gaming, but will be editing 4K video.  Can you recommend an AMD graphics card for 4K editing?

 

Thanks in advance!

@neutronJK Discussion on building a Hackintosk is against the Community Standards as it fall under piracy.

Apple does not officially allow hackintosh's and thus this site cannot be a venue to discuss, distribute or instruct on the "how's to" of making these.

For Reference;

  • Talking about piracy in general, broad details, is acceptable however the posting or discussing pirated/hacked/cracked or otherwise nefariously obtained content is not. This includes Windows content, games, hackintosh, etc. Also discussions regarding ways to avoid or block legitimately installed monitoring/tracking software or the like is also not allowed.
