I know all in one PCs are rare to be mackintosh able.
But I want to check if my hardware on the Lenovo b520e is compatible or not.

I don't want play games, I just want it for starting iOS development.

The specs are following.

CPU : Intel Pentium G630 / 2.7 GHz
MOBO : LGA1155
RAM : 8 GB ddr3
GPU : Integrated Intel HD 2000 graphics.


Thanks.

P.s : I am a complete newbie to hackintoshes but have been reading guides and lurking around the forums to learn more about hackintoshes. Hope I will set up a hackintosh soon. Until I can afford a Mac/book myself.

Unless you can add a graphics card to it, the integrated graphics disqualifies it from running OS X; HD 2000 isn't supported.
 
Ah,
Thanks nose.

What about this build
CPU :Intel® Pentium® Processor G4400 (3M Cache, 3.30 GHz)
RAM : Corsair Memory 8GB (1x8GB) DDR4 2133MHz CL15 DIMM
MOBO : Gigabyte H110MS-2 Board
GPU : Suggest an entry level for light/medium games.

Thanks again.

That should work. There are at least a couple of builds other users have done with Skylake Pentiums. Here are a couple of links that may have useful information for you:

I don't know what graphics card to suggest though. Look at the Buyer's Guide to see if anything fits your budget.

Thanks a lot nose for the links.
But the Pentium g4400 is only marginally cheaper than the i3 6100. So I decided to go for this instead.

Here is the final build that I plan to go for.

CPU : Intel Core i3-6100 6th Gen LGA 1151 Processor. Intel HD graphics 530
MOBO : Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2 DDR4 Intel 6th Generation Motherboard
RAM : Crucial 2x8GB DDR4 2133Mhz PC4-17000 CT8G4DFD8213 1.2v Unbuffered(I read OS X works best with dual config.)
SSD : Samsung 850 EVO 250GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD
PSU : Corsair VS Series VS550 - 550 Watt SMPS
Wi-Fi : TP-LINK TL-WN881ND Wireless N300 PCI Express Adapter, 2.4GHz 300Mbps

Hope this is build can run El Capitan.(And later Mac OS Sierra)

P.S I have a HDD and that will be used for booting windows. And SSD for OS X.
I can dual boot right? I don't understand kext and some stuff. But I am doing more research.
Hopefully one day, I will successfully build a hackintosh.
