Hi,
i plan on using this as a gaming computer but using Mac OS and main is and just using windows for gaming as Mac dosnt give many opportunities for gaming.
i set a budget of $2000 Australian and this is what I came up with:
Case: coolermAster storm eenforcer
power supply: thermal take 775w
Motherboard: asus p8z77-v lk
cpu: intel i7 2600 quad core
memory: 4x4gb pc3-12800 1600mhz DDR ram
Harddrives:1x ocz 120gb vertex 3 series ssd ( for running windows and gaming )
1x 1tb hdd ( for windows storage )
1x 2tb hdd ( for running Mac OS and Mac storage )
Video card: sapphire raedon hd 7970 3gb gddr5
and lastly a standard generic disc reader/wrwriter
thanks for helping
 
May be some solid work but I expect it to be able to work.

Only part in question id the motherboard all other parts should work.

Edit: Your graphics card will not work in ML but will work in Lion I believe.
 
Hi thank you for your help... I can change the motherboard to a gigabyte z77x- d3h
Also I'm $50 under budget so I think I might bump my CPU up to the intel i7 3770k...is this still ok...and will there be new driver brought out to allow my graphics card to work in the future or will it never work on ml
 
ALL intel i-core CPU's are supported and as for the motherboard like the other one with a few minor tweaks it should work, there are other destinations for DSDT's other than here, you may be a able to find one here.
