I hope the Hardware Specs are enough for you to check if Mac is running if not please let me know.

 

I also know that Intel WiFi will not work for this I have a compatible USB WiFi Adapter.

 

Thanks for your help.

Discrete Graphics Card in a switched dual-GPU configuration is not usable on OS X. You check for a way to disable your nVIDIA GFX Card. 

 

Your Processor,Chipset,Intel HD300 & ALC269 will support for OS X. 

 

Intel(R) Centrino(R) Advanced-N 6230 Will not support on OS X.

 

On Ethernet Adapter i am not sure whether it will enable/work perfectly with OS X.

 

Good Luck...!
