Thanks guys! I'll take it down a notch, then :)

Great, thanks your answers @Jamesbond007 and @remington! One more question, while we're on the subject: would 650 watts of power supply be overkill on this build?

Sorry, what do you mean?

Hi there, Gathering information for my first hackintosh build and have come to a pre-final list of components, but then I realized I didn't see the i5-8600 (non k) mentioned in the compatible CPU list, nor can I seem to find any build that are not 8600K. Is there a reason for this? Should I get...

Has anyone tried this build/guide with an external GPU? Seems like everyone is just using the intregrated i7 GPU, but I would like to hook up a stronger graphics card (gonna be my first build). Anybody have any experience with this? Recommendations for compatibility etc? Thanks in advance!

It sounds pretty great. I’ll definitely keep an eye out for it, thanks for the info!

Ah, shoot! Also not sure if I can have it shipped to the Netherlands and still have it be affordable. Something else you can recommend maybe?

Thanks, glad to hear it. Any tips for the wifi/bluetooth module?

hi guys, Just doing some research to get the most affordable (under € 1000) and solid build meeting the necessary requirements. Was hoping to get some views on this. Intel Core i5-8600 Boxed € 261,51 Gigabyte Z370-HD3 € 94,- Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 570 4GD5 (11266-04) € 179,- Fractal...

Was planning on getting 8700 (no K) so there should be a integrated cooler I think. But for the compatibility of the components, do you foresee any problems with the build? Just wanted to double check before I get to buying. Hope to have things running smoothly before the end of the year. Also...

Is a cooler really necessary? Since I'm not planning to overclock and I'm getting the boxed version, wouldn't you say the built-in cooler is sufficient? I'm new to this, so please enlighten me! Great tip on the 860 vs the 970, I thought I'd save a couple bucks, but I did some looking around...

Thanks a bunch for thinking with me on this. I chose the Gigabyte 4G because I used a 2017 macbook pro model for 4k video editing before, and it had a similar video card, which really did the trick well enough. Upgrading would be an extra dent in my budget, and I'm thinking it won't necessary at...

Hi everyone, Me and my friend are planning on building an affordable hackintosh before the end of the year and we were wondering if you could give us some advice on compatibility and the likes so we at least will have the right components for the build. I have never done a build myself, but my...
