So I am ready for my hackintosh. Today the new iMac has been released and it is appleaing, But as a video editor and animator I feel that I need to beef up beyond the iMac. Although if anyone could tell me looking at this set up weather it looks like it will out perform the new iMac. Also if I could get any feedback on this set-up that'd be great. I had to downgrade the processor because I needed a motherboard that can support Thunderbolt, but I am open to suggestions if anyone knows of a better processor that would be compatible.

Ram:
Case: (Question: What case should I go with? I want it to run a silent as a macpro I guess)
Fan: (This is what was recommended to me, thats why I have gone with it)
Cooler: (also just the recommended model)
