Oh and BTW this guy overclocks like a boss ! LinusTechTips got from 3.2GHz all the way up to 4.7GHz with just an H100 ! :O

Oh ok. Sorry Tony, didn't think about the iGPU part. Thanks for the info ! Just wanted to throw in my 2 cents. Maybe add it later with a preface saying no iGPU on this guy in OS X ?
Ok, found one on eBay for ~$93 from "an Experienced Seller"

No sign of the amazing bargain that is the Intel Pentium G3258 Anniversary Edition ? Haswell, Dual Core, Cheap oh and Unlocked !
Surprised.

I think I'm going to be adventurous and upgrade when Yosemite comes out. Might even try the beta later this summer as I'm part of the OS X public beta program.
And I too am going to the dark side of Yosemite
First computer ever used was a 2003 Power Mac G5 2.0 GHz DP (the original Dual CPU model) :
First computer ever owned was a 2007 1.83 GHz Mac Mini. Still have it running Tiger with 1GB RAM :
Nice video although I still think WiFi isn't the best solution because latency is so important. If it helps, power line networking can be considered a compromise.
Corsair is my brand of choice. Period
I personally use the older K60 but if I were buying now, I'd say go for the K70 if you're an FPS Gamer (CoD, BF4, Titanfall, etc.) or the K95 if you're an MMO player (WoW, LoL, Dota 2, etc.)
1st : No Display Spanning on OS X. Apple sees no need for that in their minds.
2nd : I don't think you'll get the PS3 controller working because the "Mac Version" of Skyrim is an unofficial Cider wrapping of the PC Version and not a native port of the game to OS X. (Cider is a wrapper like...
Nice. I've been in on the closed beta since day 1 and it's pretty decent. Although don't expect amazing performance over cheap 2.4GHz Wireless N. You will be disappointed. Believe me, I've tested it. If you can, go go hard-wired Ethernet or get a Dual Band AC Router.
I'm really stoked about this beast. An SLI, haswell i7, up to 32gb ram gaming notebook crammed into a chassis that rivals the retina MacBook pro for the price of an entry level 15" rMBP which has no discrete graphics.
And I did some digging and there's some very interesting news about the X7...
Hi guys, I'm hoping you can help me so here's the deal.
I've been approached by a client to build a "portable" beast of a Hackintosh that can rival/best a Mac Pro for workflows involving Final Cut Pro X and DaVinci Resolve.
The list below is a draft so all suggestions are welcome however...
Awesome guide. I read through it and found it very informative. Great job.

Is a Clover boot loader required or can I use Chimera as an alternative ?
How is the battery on OS X and the performance of the Intel GPU ?
Update : Downloading Mavericks. already got MultiBeast v6/UniBeast v3. will try to install later. Will be a clean one since right now I'm getting KP'd all the time (system uptime in xxx nanoseconds KP)
