Hello everyone!

 

I am new to the project and looking to install Mac OSX on my PC. There are a few catches, though, that I would like to check on with the experts to ensure that my hardware is compatible.

 

The following is my system specification according to Speccy;

 

Operating System

MS Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

CPU

Intel Core i7 2600K @ 3.40GHz

Sandy Bridge 32nm Technology

RAM

8.00 GB DDR3 @ 649MHz (9-9-9-24)

Motherboard

ASUSTeK Computer INC. P8P67 (LGA1155)

Graphics

E2350 (1920x1080@60Hz)

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570

Hard Drives

1954GB Hitachi Hitachi HUA723020ALA640 ATA Device (SATA)

Optical Drives

DTSOFT Virtual CdRom Device

ASUS DVD-E818A7T ATA Device

Audio

M-Audio FastTrack Pro

 

Also, I am looking to install OSX on a USB harddrive, a WD MyBook that I bought a few years back.

 

I'm wondering the following;

 

Firstly, is it possible to install to a USB drive like this?

 

Secondly, is it possible to install OSX -without- an existing OSX installation? I have no access to a Mac and thus cannot follow most of the guides I've found.

 

Thanks so much!
