Don't use a WD blue or Green drive as a boot drive for OS X. Use DVI-D or HDMI for video. :thumbup:

That should get you started for now.

I'd wait on the 3930, its soon to be an outdated processor. Why not wait a few months for ivy bridge-e? And what are you doing that requires this much power?
 
I would wait and see what appears with Ivy Bridge-E. It should be a much better platform for OSX users.

Oh, and it will have better CPUs for the type of work that you do. What I mean is that when software can fully utilize 8+ cores then your Ivy Bridge-E build will be able to support it. Hopefully!


Good luck.
