Help with my first build. $600 Budget

[Potchkey]

Hi,

This is my first time building a computer and a hackintosh. I wanted to get some opinions on my build to see if I did the right research and everything should work. Also I wanted to have some suggestions if there is anything that I should change on the parts that I am thinking of buying. I am looking to do a budget build now of about $600, but will eventually be upgrading at least the video cards. Let me know what you think.

Sony Optiarc 24X DVD Burner, Bulk Package Black SATA Model AD-7280S-0B

Rosewill CHALLENGER-U3 Case

Seagate Barracuda ST31000524AS 1TB 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive

RAIDMAX HYBRID 2 RX-630SS 630W Power Supply

Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz

GIGABYTE GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3 Motherboard

CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) RAM Model CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9B

Yes, since using on board HD3000 graphic from your 2500K CPU, you have all the basic component to run OSX Lion.

Looks good! I had around the same budget as you when I did my build so take a look at mine - I recommend the GTS 250. Nice card, and cheap on eBay!

Would this RAM still work with this build? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6820220557

Every DDR3 RAM works.

If you want the least amount of hassle, stay away from hard drives with 4k sectors.
