Help building first hackintosh

[Hoopster]

I am going to build my first hackintosh and need some help with it. I want it to work like a real mac as closely possible. With the least amount of hacking a possible on the install. This is the Hardware I am looking at

 

Intel Core i5-750 Lynnfield 2.66GHz 8MB L3 Cache LGA 1156 95W Quad-Core Processor BX80605I5750

 

GIGABYTE GA-P55-USB3 LGA 1156 Intel P55 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

 

Pioneer Black 22X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 12X DVD+R DL 22X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 12X DVD-RAM 40X CD-R 32X CD-RW 2MB Cache SATA CD/DVD Burner LabelFlash Support - OEM

 

EVGA 512-P3-N973-TR GeForce 9800 GT 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

 

Kingston ValueRAM 2GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Desktop Memory Model KVR1333D3N9/2G

 

Will I run into any problems with that hardware, I need to stay in that price range. I am also looking for a bluetooth and wifi card thats wireless n that will work like the built-in cards on a real mac. And whats the best way to install snow leopard that will work the best. I have a snow leopard install disk and another mac so thats not a problem. Thank you for the help.

Thank you very much I think I will keep the same hardware but change the motherboard to the GIGABYTE GA-P55A-UD4P LGA 1156 Intel P55 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard w/ USB 3.0 & SATA 6 Gb/s if that will work ok. And use [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]+mutibeast for the install. Can anyone recommend a good wifi card with wireless n and a good bluetooth card that will work like the built-ins on macs?

 

Found a wifi card, PCIe X1 D-Link DWA-556. Now just need bluetooth.

I'd check out the kakewalk (search OSx86 for kakewalk) motherboards. the disc system is so slick and easy. I was a bit worried about my upgrade to snow leopard, about 30 minutes later (using kakewalk) I had 10.6.2 64 bit working great. Never been so easy.

 

Your other hardware looks great.

So would kakewalk or [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]+[url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] or something else be better? Which will get me the closest to the real thing? And what would my best bet be for a motherboard (preferably one with audio if thats possible trying to keep my costs down)? Thanks a lot.

Would the GIGABYTE GA-P55A-UD4P or P55-USB3 be better? Which is better supported? Or neither. I think I might be leaning towards [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]+[url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] just cause it seems to have more compatible hardware options. But if i can't do [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] supported I might not cause thats the only [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] that does a vanilla kernel which leaves os x as untouched as possible. Right? Sorry I just don't know much about this. So whats the best install options and best Motherboard. Thanks.
