:beachball: Hi everybody! I'm From Argentina and here things are bad due to importation problems. :banghead:
It is getting harder and harder to import hardware from usa.


As i said its my first hackintosh build and i'll loved to hear what you think, your opinion and tell me any advice about 4k editing. What hardware recommend for that? Here's what i thought to build:

* GA-Z87X-UD7 TH
* Intel Core i7-4770K 8Mb cache 3.5Ghz up to 3.9Ghz
* Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz
* GTX770


I've not finished my decistion yet so if you have some extra advices please comment! Any suggestion will be BIENVENIDA!

Thanks dudes! And sorry for my ugly english i know it sucks! haha:lol:
Regards!
 
Is it impossible to get one of the Sharp or Asus IGZO 4K monitors in Argentina
as well? Most of the new 4K Monitors that sell for under $1000 can only
give you a 30Hz refresh rate. With that in mind it's not likely that you'll be
playing anything back at a 4K resolution much less editing at that resolution.

If that's your situation then the build you've got should be a good place to start.
If you can eventually get one of the IGZO monitors the dual Thunderbolt ports
will give you the option of using a true 4K display with your CustoMac.

:beachball:My idea was to buy some true color 27inches, or two 24inches to start. If some day the money falls from heaven that will be the day i coudl afford one of the IGZO monitors!
Regarding 2 thunderbolt ports it will be not only for monitors, i'm pretty pretty interested on LACIE/ GYLPH drives
