Hi there. I have spent a while fully customizing my potential hackintosh build. I think I have come to a final conclusion, so I decided to run it over the community. Here are the current specs of my build:
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-H87M-D3H
CPU: Intel Core i5 4690
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Superclocked
RAM: Crucial Ballistic Sport VLP 8GB (4GBx2)
HDD: Western Digital Black 1TB 7200rpm drive
CASE: Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-02
PSU: Corsair CS Series 450W ATX Modular
DVD: ASUS DRW-24F1ST
WIFI: TP-LINK TL-WN781ND
OS: Mac OS X 10.9.? (Whatever is supported)
I do not plan on doing any over clocking with this build. That is why I went with an H87 board over a more expensive (I think) Z87 board. I want this build to last at least four years, and be nice and stable with Mac OS X. The only question I have about this build is weather or not I should get an H97 board or a Z97 board. I know the 9 series boards from Gigabyte are not completely supported with Mac OS X, but I was wondering how usable they are with OS X.
I am willing to change any of the parts for something with more bang for buck, or better reliability. Keep in mind; however, my budget is preferably under $800.
