I have a modified version of the povomac and I have some problems.

1: Will these parts work?

CPU: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Intel-Sandybrid ... 248&sr=8-1

Case? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Coolermaster-El ... 801&sr=8-8

Motherboard: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gigabyte-GA-H61 ... cx86com-20

Video Card? http://www.amazon.co.uk/EN210-SILENT-1G ... cx86com-20

RAM: http://www.amazon.co.uk/G-SKILL-240-Pin ... cx86com-20

Hard Drive: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Western-Digital ... cx86com-20

DVD Drive: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-AD-7280S-0 ... cx86com-20

2: Is there a power supply there? (Power supply for the UK) If not please link to one! :D (Cheapest possible from amazon.co.uk)

3: Is there a DSDT for this build? If so please tell me what options to pick in the DSDT database!

4: Will this work with lion.

Thanks.
 
1. Your parts look ok.
The GA-H61M-D2-B3 with I3-2100 cpu is a common combination, which is very close to the recommended CustoMac builds

And simular to my second Hackintosh (only with I3-2120 cpu).
Should work fine.

Also quite simular to the PovoMac

2. PSU? The CustoMac Budget build 2011 has a Corsair 430W

3. You can find the DSDST in the DSDT database

4. and yes, will work fine with OS X Lion.
Easy install with UniBeast and MultiBeast... :D
 
If you can afford it bump up the CPU to the 2105.

Get the GT 210 512MB instead the 1GB seems to give trouble.
