Is my computer hackintoshable? Pls help!

[andreasbund]

Hey guys!

I have a Dell Optiplex 390 (small form factor). The specs are as follows:
CPU - Intel Core i3-2120 3,3 GHz
I have the opportunity to pick from these two graphics cards:
AMD Radeon HD 6450 or MSI GeForce GT 720, which one should i take?
Motherboard is Intel H61 Express.

Is these things hackintoshable?
What software should i use to do this?
Is there any guides?
Please help me with this little project!

Please read the rules and complete the profile information for you system so that it appears in the left side bar below you used ID. This way people can respond without having to refer back to the first post.

And I might point out that you can find answers to many questions by using the search function before asking your question in a posting.

Then the Dell Optiplex 390 can probably be hacked. These machines are not recommended as they usually have a problematic BIOS where there is no choice of AHCI for the SATA drives (required for OOB installation of OS X).

And if I were choosing GPUs, I would go with the GeForce GT 720.

You would have a much better experience with OS X if you found hardware that is on the Buyer Guide (current or past versions).


Good modding,
neil

What that what you meant about finishing my profile?
For the 'No AHCI-part' i've found this little thing:

They say that should do the trick.
Otherwise, if that works, will the rest of the components work with hackintosh?
