Hey guys, I'm now couple of weeks in this community and read a LOT about hackintosh and how to set it up.
This is my final build:
I7-2600(non k, I have this one already)
Gigabyte Z68 UD3H-B3(I will use Gordo's tutorial for a clean installation on this motherboard)
Corsair Vengeance 16GB 1600 MHz RAM (low profile, 1,5V CL9, 4x4GB) I will use 4GB for the installation
XFX Radeon 6870 1GB
Seasonic X-Series 560Watt power supply (turns off fan in idle )
2xCorsair Force GT SSD 120GB 6Gb/s (I will put them in software raid 0, there is a tutorial here, will follow this)
I will get a older NZXT case from a friend, till I finish my G5 case mod
I'm a hardcore Webdesigner and using photoshop all the time, I have many tabs and many browsers, mail, iTunes, Adium and coda running at the same time. I'm video encoding, but not so often and want to play new game on my 20" cinema display. Maybe I will go in couple of months with a multimonitor setup, this card should be able to power 2xfull hd or even 2x 2560x1440?
Do you guys see anything that I could improve? No need for hdd, I have an older data drive, 1tb I think for backup and data storage.
