I'm hoping to build an i7 hackintosh that will work great for Final Cut Pro editing, Adobe CS5 (mostly After Effects) and Cinema 4D rendering

 

I've done tons of reading on these forums with tons of different recommendations given. I've put together a parts list but it is by no means complete. If possible I'd love to have an eight core i7. But a fast four core i7 is ok to (so far that's all I can find) Overall I know there are better options out there, and it would be amazing if someone more knowledgeable had some recommends.

 

Would like to keep the total around $1000 but can go up to $1300
