Hey everyone. This is my first post here. Extremely grateful for a place like this. I’ve decided to build a Hackintosh. I’ve tried searching through the forums for recommendations, but it’s hard to sort through so much info. I’m hoping some of you more experienced with building a Hackintosh Audio workstation can point me in the right direction.
Basically I want a killer audio workstation that I can sometimes (rarely) edit video on. 6-12 core processor, 32-64GB DDR4 ram, 2 decent but not crazy expensive gpus. I would like to take advantage of the newest tech available even though prices have been reduced on previous Kaby Lake builds. I’m looking to spend $1500-2000. I use UAD Thunderbolt audio interfaces. This is the biggest concern For me. If I get a motherboard with USB3 will I be able to still use my UAD Thunderbolt hardware with my system? I know this is a very specific question and most might not know the answer, but I just wanted to test the waters and see if some of you might know.... Any recommendations for Motherboard brand, Ram brand, and best quality will be much appreciated. Thanks
