Hello all,

I'm pretty close to ordering up my first hackintosh hardware, which is described below. If anyone has any comments about any of the components, or the combination of parts I'd love to hear them!

I was thinking of going with the Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R motherboard as it's cheaper, and i don't think i'd need the extra pci-x slot. Not sure which one I'll get for sure yet.
