Used pc... Hackintosh?

[tgraneberg]

Hey guys!

My Imac just recently died on me, so I desperately need something to replace it!

Since I don't have a lot of dough right now, I'm thinking about buying a used pc and trying out the hackintosh way.

Do you think this setup might work?

Motherboard: ASUStek COMPUTER INC. P8H61-M LX3
Cpu: Intel Core i3 2120
Graphics: NVIDIA Geforce GT 520

Try looking for HP 8300 systems on Ebay. They have been known to be easy to install OS X on.

Dell's too, tons and tons of them around, core duo's are about $40.00 US in my town at a used computer store.

Optiplex 7xx, 8xx, and 9xx have been used a lot.
