dear tonymacx86 community!
I've been checking out this page for a long time and informed myself, but I guess... now I need your help
I want to build my first Hackintosh because I'm fed up using my netbook and a 8 year old Win XP Pc.....
I have access to a Mac mini since a friend owns one, but I personaly don't own any Apple product.(in case I need to do anything I can't do on a Win XP/7)
I already looked up some criteria for parts to make it a bit more easy, but since I'm still a newbie I'm not sure
I want to use the following parts:
Mobo: GA Z68x UD3H-B3 (DisplayPort/HDMI/DVI/D-Sub)
CPU: i7 2600 (k??)
SSD: Intel 510 Series
HDDs: 2x WesternDigital WD20EARX (caviar green 2TB)
RAM: G.Skill DIMM 16 Gb DDR3 1600 Kit
ODD: Sony Optiarc
Cardreader?? no idea so far...
PU: be quiet! dark power pro P9 550W
(might be a little bit too much power, but has a great efficiency)
Grafics: I want to use the Intel HD 3000 Grafics (I don't need a gaming PC),
is it possible to use this one if I make my build "from scratch"?
I haven't purchased anything jet and I hope somebody can give me a little piece of advice
I also havn't bought any OS jet, so I guess i have to install SL first, or has anybody experience using the USB-Flashdrive Lion installer?
best regards, Alex
