So, I bought a custom PC. Wasn't considering Hickintoshing it at the time. Now I am. Just hoping it's close enough that I might only have to change a thing or 2. Looking this up myself and mostly asking for confirmation on stuff I couldn't find. Thanks for any help :)

I want to use the Windows side for gaming/ school and stuff, and OS X side mainly for Logic X.
Also, I do have an older Macbook Pro that can run current versions of mac os x's. Read that that matters.

Compatible = yes; incompatible = no; unknown = dunno.

My current build:
CPU:
i7-4790K 4.00GHz, yes
MOBO:
GA-Z97X-GAMING 5, yes
Ram:
Patriot 8GB DDR3-1600 PC3-12800, dunno
GPU:
Asus GeForce GTX 1060 6GD5, no. Not even the Nvidia one is compatible, so don't think this is either. But I intend to use the CPU's IGPU for the mac OS X if possible because that's compatible.
SSD:
Samsung 500GB 2.5in SATA3 850 EVO SSD, dunno
HDD:
Toshiba 1TB 3.5 SATA3 7200RPM 32MB 3.5", dunno
DVD:
LITEON 24x DVD±RW Dual Layer SATA, dunno
Lan (if this matters):
AD-NETGMA 10/100/1000 Gigabit Network Onboard, dunno
Wifi/bluetooth:
Gigabyte PCIe x1 Wifi 802.11ac/Bluetooth 4.0, dunno. Some say it isn't compatible. Some say it works for no reason.

SATA storage drives will (almost) always work in Hackintoshes. However, optical drives may or may not be compatible (most likely, it is.)
