Looking to build a dedicated box for my first hackintosh. Any advice would be appreciated. I tried reviewing the buying advice section for choosing parts.

Gigabyte GA-Z170N-WIFI LGA 1151 mITX
Intel Core i5-6500 SkyLake
Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 16GB 2 x 8GB DDR4-2400
Corsair CS Series CS750M 750 Watt ATX
Dedicated Graphics?

I have a 120gb cruicial ssd and a 1tb wd 7200 rpm drive that would be used.

I've debated if it is worthwhile to purchase a dedicated graphics card. Would a $100 new 1050 or a used card less than $200 be worth it?
 
I wouldn't buy a used graphics card unless you knew the a) owner, and/or b) actual use the card's been through. That's a gamble I wouldn't take otherwise. You are better off with the 1050 IMHO.
