Hi all - I'm investigating the possibility of building my first Hackintosh. Currently, I'm still nursing my 2015 rMBP along - but it simply does not have enough power any more to handle my 5D Mark IV images in Lightroom let alone 4k footage in Premiere.
NEEDS: I do a LOT of photo editing in Lightroom and Photoshop. I do my editing in Premiere and grading in Resolve. I want my system to handle 4k as well as possible. I want to do this right, but I don't have a ton of money to blow on it.
BUDGET: I'd like to stay roughly around $1500 (excluding an UltraFine 4k monitor).
That being said, what would you suggest as a build? I want it to last me a couple of years but have room for upgradability in the future. SSD only, but don't need a big drive. Thunderbolt is a must.
Thanks, all.
