Greetings!

First I have to say that I love this site! Always wanted a mac but they cost too much just to satisfy my curiousity (bet I spelled that wrong). But then I found out about hackintosh and this site so now I have compiled a list of hardware and would appriciate some advice if I need to change anything.

The list:

CORSAIR 8GB DDR3 XMS3 INTEL I5/I7 PC10666 1333MHZ (2X4GB)
CORSAIR CX 430W V2 ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V PSU
GIGABYTE GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3 Z68 S-1155 M-ATX
INTEL CORE I5 2500K 3.30GHZ 6MB S-1155
SEAGATE BARRACUDA 500GB 7200RPM SATA/600 16MB

I will add a graphicscard later on since this has integrated gfx.

It will be used to do some web and flash Actionscript3 development.

So please give me your opinion :)

Thank you for your time.

Have you taken a look here for a list of supported GFX cards etc?http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/search/label/CustoMac Your build looks good to me.

Yes I have looked at it and there are two reasons why I decided to wait with getting a graphics card from the start. First one is the budget.. I´ll get the items on the list now and add a graphics card later on, next month or so. Second is that finding a card that will work is a bit confusing: do I have to match the exact make and model of any given in the list? And also the ones on that list are hard to find here in sweden. I did Find the Gigabyte 6850, so thats the one I plan to buy later on.

Thanks for your reply
 
Like I said it looks good to me!
 
It will work, so no problem with it.
