Hi!
I'm building an hackintosh for a recording studio.
This is my actual build:

i7-4770K
Corsair Vengeance 16GB
Corsair CX Series 600 Watt
SanDisk Extreme SSD 120 GB SATA
Mavericks osx

I would save money and use the integrated HD4600 on two monitors @1920x1080 @60 Herz, extended desktop mode. Not interested to games
Can you suggest me a motherboard to do this on hackintosh?

This is the list of motherboard I've chosen (from Buyer's Guide), but I want to be sure to do the right choice. The simplest to install is better.

CustoMac mATX

GA-Z87MX-D3H
GA-Z87M-D3H


CustoMac Budget ATX
GA-Z87X-D3H
GA-Z87-HD3
GA-H87-D3H

CustoMac Pro:

GA-Z87X-OC Force
GA-Z87X-OC
GA-Z87X-UD5H
GA-Z87X-UD3H

Thanks in advance for help
 
All the motherboards are capable of using HD4600 graphics through two monitors simultaneously. You cannot use VGA - just be aware of this.

Decide on a motherboard that suits your build budget and requirements and look at other builds using the same board. Read them, bookmark them, print them off for reference. Do the installation with a single monitor attached to the motherboard and you should be fine.

Did you uncheck the Enable Mirroring box in the settings menu?
