First Hackintosh planning... might need some help :/
Heyya Folks,
in the past I played around with the OSX in the VM or setting up ubuntu to make it like OSX, but well, it just sucks. I love how fluent the OSX works, but for gaming I will stay with my Windows Pc.
So, I wanna build a Mac Mini, Hd3000 or Hd4000 build in graphiccardsolution, 4 or 8 gigs of ram, a ~60 gig ssd, and a mainboard compatible for all this.
I did some research and wanted to ask, if those components can work nicely together, and with OSX ofcourse! I want to use this tiny thing as a desktop/multimedia system.
That means: Listening to music, watching movies (full hd), browsing the web.
=> Monitor:
Now you see, there's no power supply added, because of the following:

It has a build-in 60W power supply. But there's the following sentence:
"Once it may be a little more power, you can also use an optional 120W power Supply, since the internal circuit board is able to process an input voltage of up to 120W."
Does this actually mean, once the i3 needs more power, cause it's getting pushed to it's limits, it will work with that power supply? I do love the case, since it's aluminium, looks great and is tiny.
**EDIT**
I just overread the word "optional". So, does anyone know a external power supply which will work or another tiny case plus a power supply?
So I hope some of you might be able to help me, I would be really greatful if so.
Best Regards,
Deen
