So i have been preparing myself for my journey into Hackintosh territory. I've compiled a list of hardware on the lines of tony's CustoMacPro build for October, though i was unable to track down some of the components in this part of the world. What i need is suggestions regarding the chassis i have chosen, PSU and the SATA HDD (it being a solid state hybrid drive - will it be able to work without any problems and with compatibility). The Xigmatek PSU comes in at 600W, should i think about going for a 700W just in case? initially i plan not to install a discrete graphics card and will add it maybe start of next year. If you have any suggestions in regards to the chassis to let me know, though keep in mind choice is limited. I really like the Corsair Cosmos SE but i think its an overkill for my needs. I will be video editing on OSX and gaming on the Win8. The components that have not bee set to bold, are the ones that were my other choices and have been ignored due to cost considerations and unavailability.
