$1500.00 budget build help!!!

[Apgibby]

I want to build a machine that runs OSX as natively possible. But with the 100's of parts and builds
available, i am stumped. Could someone compile a parts list for me? I also want to be able to update
The Os with minlmal kext replacement. I wont be gaming or video editing just audio recording.


Thanks in advance.

Look at the Customac Pro build in the Buyer's Guide. Select the I7-4790K and a Z97 motherboard
that meets your I/O needs. For the ram and graphics card, get the best that your budget allows.
Probably good to get a 32 GB ram kit if you're doing Pro audio work, if not just get 16GB

You can see my specs below for my Pro Tools rig.. Rock solid and haven't had any problems updating Yosemite versions so far

I also elected to use Clover as I was getting random freezing with the multibeast method.

good luck
