Hi i am building my first computer and i am looking into building a hackintosh. I have already bought the ssd and the cpu which i have listed below and am looking into buying the gpu,ram and motherboard.
I was looking in this http://www.tonymacx86.com/buying-ad...pus-100-series-motherboards-buyers-guide.html thread and the motherboard is listed on there. That said i just wanted to make sure that the parts i am buying are compatible and won't cause many issues with a hackintosh.

Would this build work or is there a better motherboard and gpu i could buy?


Parts i bought
CPU: Intel i5-6500
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB

Parts i'm thinking of buying

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H170-D3HP ~ 100 euros
GPU: MSI r9 380
Ram: Kingston HyperX Fury HX426C15FBK2 16gb

Thanks in advance

i had a good look and couldn't find any guides for that motherboard, nor could i find that exact model on the list. the next model up which is z170 will cost a little more but has a nice guide here for install http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capitan-desktop-guides/180618-guide-el-capitan-ga-z170x-ud3-4.html. unless you are good at tinkering i'd only ever use a mobo i can find a guide for! and give props of course!
