Few days ago I had my first Hackintosh installation.

I finished intalation of 10.6 SL and update it on 10.6.8.

Old PC hardware version.
1. Asus P5GC
2. Intel E1200
3. 3Gb DDR2 RAM
4. MSI ATI Radeon HD4650 512Mb
5. WD 500GB

Now, I want to make my final 10.8.2 hardware configuration...

Already have:
1. GA-Z77-DS3H
2. 4 Gb DDR3 *Plan is to go with 32Gb
3. SAPPHIRE HD 6670 1GB DDR3
4. SSD 120 GB KINGSTON V+
5. WD 500Gb
6. WD 640Gb

My processor choice is something between 3350p and 3570k. First one is about 40$ cheaper.

Is 3570k worth another 40$ or not?!


p.s. sorry for bad English
 
If you need the extra power and want to overclock your CPU, get the 3570k. Otherwise the slower modell is more than enough for daily use.

Ok...


Than, it will be 3570k &

1. GA-Z77-DS3H
2. 4 Gb DDR3 *Just make order for 32Gb (4x8Gb, 1600MHz)
3. SAPPHIRE HD 6670 1GB DDR5
4. SSD 120 GB KINGSTON HyperX 3K instead of V+
5. WD 500Gb
6. WD 640Gb
