I'm currently looking for a laptop for school since its the summer time and i see this for $899 on NCIX it seems like a good deal and i wonder if anyone attempted to hackintosh this laptop

The uses for this laptop:
Final Cut Pro X
Adobe Photoshop CC
Adobe After Effects CC
Adobe Premier CC
Adobe Lightroom CC

and some Light Gaming CSGO

I'm going to replace the HDD with a SSD and put the 1TB Hard drive in a enclosure for the DVD Drive

I've know that i need to get a new Wi-Fi Card for this but anything other?
