why do you need pc unlimited budget buy macbook pro retina as Rehabman suggested is your best option and you can still run windows on it or any other OS
 
Buy a Mac. Macs can run Windows and OS X.

Really I request help from you , And are you kidding me .
If I want to buy a mac I would not ask you to ...
When I meant I was not limited to money, it was to explain that I am looking to buy a PC at all costs.
It does not require a computer I will buy some more expensive, I am looking for a PC that works with Hackintosh without problems (Wifi Work , Sleep mode , sound card...other)
If you help me I will thank you a lot !!! :)

Key words in your post: "100%" and "unlimited budget".

My recommendation remains the same. Buy a Mac. I'm not joking.

There is no such thing as a hackintosh "without problems," especially laptops.

Is it nvidia + Intel HD or just nvidia? All the G710 I see on lenovo.com are HD4600 only. If you have read the compatibility post (http://www.tonymacx86.com/laptop-compatibility/106791-laptop-compatibility.html), you know that nvidia is not supported in a switched dual-GPU configuration. If you're ok with using only Intel HD, then no worries.

Also, most Lenovo laptops have a WiFi whitelist implemented in BIOS which prevents replacement of the WiFi card with one compatible with OS X. If you're ok using USB WiFi, then no worries. Review the service manual to see what FRUs are accepted by the machine and to see if any are compatible with OS X.

Also, you should be aware that most card readers do not work in OS X, and USB3 can be flakey. Audio is often difficult to get working and usually does not work as well as in Windows. There can be issues with mic and headphones as well as volume/sound quality. Built-in webcams can be finicky too. Most of this you won't discover until after you start working with OS X on the laptop.

You should also be aware that getting OS X running on a laptop as best possible will take much effort and learning. If this is your first laptop hack, plan on weeks if not months of research and development. It helps if you are familiar with software coding.

Hacking a laptop is not something you do to get a perfect (or even good) machine running OS X. It is something you do for fun, for the challenge, and for the opportunity to learn.

But seriously, with an "unlimited budget" purchase a retina MacBookPro.
