I hope this is not a silly question. I've been running a hackintosh with 10.8 for a long time, but the softwares I use will have an upgrade (which I need) and they will work only on Yosemite or El Capitan, so I will have to upgrade my machine. The real problem is: importing components to my...

MacMan, or any one that can help me, I'm trying to build my first hackintosh, and I want to do a dual boot with Win7. On the Win side, I need a good graphics card, so your build is really interesting because of the GTX 470. Is it too hard for someone that has never built a hackintosh try this...
