i7 Hackintosh!
Hello everyone, In maybe a month or two. I will receive the parts and will be starting to build my first ever custom built PC! I will be using the following:
8GB of PC3-12800 DDR3-1600 8GB of Ram, Buy it here. £60.00
Apple Mac v10.6 Install DVD (For the OS), which is for some reason very cheap on this site, Buy it here. £10.34
i7 2600K Socket 1155 CPU, also for some reason quite cheap. Buy it here. £199.17.
Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3-B3 Motherboard.
750 watt power supply
SSD drive(30GB) and Hard Drive from my old PC.
Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 5870.
DVD drive from my old PC.
Those are all the parts I will use! Add all those prices together and you can make a Hackintosh decently good price for a Hackintosh.
