Hackintosh for Audio/image editing on MSI Z97 gaming 9 AC

[FONT=&amp]Hi,

[FONT=&amp]I want to build a hackintosh for audio/image editing. The softwaresI normally use are Logic Pro & Photoshop.[/FONT]
[FONT=&amp]This is the first time I try to build a hackintosh, could anyonegive me some advice about the configuration?
Are they good enough for what i need to use?

[FONT=&amp]Here’s my configuration list:[/FONT]
[FONT=&amp]Processor: Intel i74790 [/FONT]
[FONT=&amp]Motherboard: MSI Z97GAMING 9 AC [/FONT]
[FONT=&amp]Graphics Card: MSI N770 TF 2GD5 [/FONT]
[FONT=&amp]RAM: Avexir 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3-1600C9 [/FONT]
[FONT=&amp]SSD: HyperX 3K SSD 120g[/FONT]

[FONT=&amp]Thanks in advanced! [/FONT]:headbang:
 
Photoshop will use as much memory as you can throw at it, especially complex image edits, I would suggest 16GB memory, I have 32 GB which is perhaps overkill for most everyday photoshop tasks.

Also, while 120GB SSD is fine for your main OS disk, you will need other disks for storage.

Thanks for the reply!
So i guess I'll get 16GB ram at first and see if I need more.
I plan to have SSD for OS disk & HDD for storage, is that okay?

And anyone ever use MSI Z97 GAMING 9 for hackintosh?
I'd like to know if it's stable or any problem on it :thumbup::thumbup:
