Hi there.
Need some advice on my second Hackintosh. Been very happy with my first build, but need a second computer. These are the following things I'm considering (mainly based on price and availability in my area, which are all quite similar).
1.
CPU: i7 6700 ($216)
MOBO: Gigabyte H170-Gaming 3 ($155)
2.
CPU: i7 6700 (again)
MOBO: Gigabyte H270-Gaming 3
(I'm mainly keen on this for potential future upgrades, and to have the USB 3.1 option, but will I encounter issues with the 6700, and/or Hacking this board?)
3.
CPU i5 7500
MOBO: Gigabyte H270-Gaming 3
(I'm aware Kaby Lake isn't officially supported yet, but that some people have had success with fake skylake id etc.)
Not planning on overclocking and not looking into getting a graphics card (as of yet).
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
