I have been working off my Macbook Pro 2011 15" system for nearly a year now. It is the most practical machine for me due to the traveling I do with my editing work. However, I am working more and more out of my office and I believe it is time to get a heavy duty machine on the go. I was aiming for the new iMac, but now I have ventured into the idea of finally building a Hackintosh, for the added benefit of a much faster superior machine at the same price as the new iMac.
As I said most of my work is in Video Editing, Animation, Graphics (mostly after effects). I have read other posts around building for video editing, which helped a lot, but a lot of things went over my head. I was just looking for any advice or tips that anyone may have. I have $3187 (£2000) to spend on the whole build, that includes everything!
I am going to start assembling my list of components, so any suggestions tips or advice on the kind of build I may want to go for considering the job I want it to do would be fantastic.
