Hi everyone,
Just want to start by saying that I'm realy excited about the Hackintosh community and tonymacx86. I'm going to build my first Hackintosh very soon and all the info and support I have found at this website has been of great help. I'm planning on building a fast video editing computer, for a relatively small amount of money.
I found a great guide on building a video editing hackintosh on nofilmschool.com. This guy explains that it is better to buy an nVidia graphics card since it specifically works well with Adobe software, like Premiere Pro. The Geforce GTX 570 seems to have the best price-to-quality ratio.
Now the thing is, I am planning on using Avid Media Composer and Final Cut Pro as well. Does anybody know how the GTX 570 works with Avid and FCP? And could you possibly explain why (as well about the reason it works good with Adobe)? I'm A NOOB! Hell yeah
Here is a list wih the components I have chosen. Attached, you will find a list with European prices. All together this will be arround 1580 US dollars. Advice about the other parts is always welcome.
CPU: Intel core i5 3570K
GPU: Gainward GeForce GTX 570 1280 MB Phantom
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H
PSU: Nexus RX-6300
SSD: Samsung 830 series 256 GB
Hard Drive: Toshiba 3TB
Cooler: Thermalright Venomous X Retail + Fan
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16 GB
Case: Antec Eleven Hundred
DVD-Burner: Lite-On iHAS524
Thank you very much!!!
