I will really appreciate the help! I'm 13 and I'm stretching my budget spending this much, so if there are any ways you know I can save, that'd be really helpful. I want an SSD, Water Cooler and the Prodigy, but if you find a reliable PSU that is less than what I have up now, that would help. Also I don't know much about water coolers, so deals on those would help! Anything that would bring costs down to at least $600 would be a huge help and even lower!
Thanks,
HyperMac5
P.S. I was recommended an i5 but if an i3 would be better I'll go that way!
I will use the Hackintosh for video editing, surfing the web/email, minor gaming, and schoolwork!
