First Hackintosh - Will my build work? (Haswell Extreme CPU)

[Straz]

​Hi!
As in the title, I'm building my first hackintosh machine. I already have some component, but I'm gonna others. Will my config work?


What I already have:

Graphic card: MSI GeForce gtx970 4GB
SSD: Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB
Hard Drive: 2 x TB Western Digital


What I would buy:

CPU: Core i7-5820K (Haswell Extreme) 6 Core 3.3 GHz Socket LGA 2011-3
Motherboard: MSI X99A SLI PLUS socket LGA 2011-3
RAM: CORSAIR - Dimm Vengeance LPX 16 GB (4 x 4GB) DDR4 2133 Mhz CL15

I hope you can help me.
Thank you in advance

I'd strongly recommend going with a build from the buyers' guide. Depending on what you want to use your machine for, those parts might be much more than you need (particularly the CPU). If you post your intended usage here, people will probably be able to make some suggestions.

Yeah, you're right. I forgfot to say that I'm gonna use it for video editing and compositing/motion graphic. That's why I thought 6 cores would be useful

OK; you might find this Puget Systems blog post useful if you haven't already seen something like it. I've never built a machine using the higher end CPUs, but differentiating between models always seemed a bit messy to me. That post helped make things clearer.

Yeah, I know about all this. And I'm pretty sure that in my case that processor is probably the best choice for my budget. What I'm not really sure about is if it's gonna work fine running a Hackintosh system.

P.S. (If I write something in a strange way, that's 'cause English is not my language. Hope I write good though )
