Hackintosh Pro Shopping List

[camgill]

Hey!



I'm doing my first full build of a hackintosh (have had a working hackintoh laptop years ago). I’m a designer and in my spare time I edit video and do some web development. Here's the list of components I've picked so far:



Intel Core i7 7700K Quad Core LGA 1151 4.2 GHz Unlocked CPU


Gigabyte GA-Z170X Gaming 5 LGA 1151 Intel Motherboard - Supports Intel 7th Gen


Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 G1 Gaming 8GB Video Card


Samsung 850 EVO 1TB 2.5" SATA III SSD MZ-75E1T0


Fenvi FV-T919 802.11AC A/B/G/N/AC BT 4.0 Desktop Wifi Card


Corsair RM650x 650W 80 Plus Gold Fully Modular Power Supply


Corsair Vengeance 32GB (2x 16GB) DDR4 3000MHz Memory


CORSAIR Hydro Series H60 (CW-9060007-WW) High Performance Water / Liquid CPU Cooler. 120mm


Anyone see anything here that could make it more of a challenging build or anything I should change?
I’m building this for home (have 3+ 5k iMac’s at work) so it’s not essential that I have it running immediately, happy to work over it for a month or so.

I’m running High Sierra on my MBP and public betas of Sierra on one of my iMacs, what would be the suggestions for the OS version, is High Sierra better for the 7th gen i7?

Thanks!!
