I'm ready to build OSX86 PC. Is this good configuration?

[WanKuver]

Hi guys, i have decided to build osx86 pc. I've been looking for configurations that can be 'fit' to my pocket and this is what i came with.

Gigabyte DDR3 2133 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - GA-Z68M-D2H - http://www.amazon.co...

Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 6850 http://www.amazon.co...

Intel Core i5-2400 3.10 GHz 6 MB Cache Socket LGA1155 Processor http://www.amazon.co...

OCZ ModXStream Pro 500W Modular High-Performance Power Supply Compatible with Intel Sandy Bridge Core i3 i5 i7 and AMD Phenom http://www.amazon.co...

Sony 24X SATA Internal DVD+/-RW Drive AD-7260S-0B - Bulk (Black) http://www.amazon.co...

Seagate Barracuda 7200 1 TB 7200RPM SATA 3Gb/s 32MB Cache 3.5 Inch Internal Hard Drive ST31000528AS-Bare Drive http://www.amazon.co...

Could you be so kind and tell me the following:

1. Will this run OSX Lion?
2. If so, is there anything you thing it might not work because of configuration?
3. Will i be able to create dual boot with Windows 7?
4. Will i be able to connect USB wireless stick like CANYON or any others.
EDIT: Is installation simple? Do i need iATKOS or some similar distro or original Lion disk

Thank you. Please keep in mind that i've collected the money for it and that i'm ready to buy these parts and create a PC/OSX86 with my casing, monitor and mouse.

Have you though about going with a Dell Workstation. The Precision 490, T5400 & T7500 workstations will all run Mac OS X 10.7.2. The nice thing about the Dells is that Foxconn makes the motherboards for both the Dells & the Mac Pros. I put my 490 together for about $500.

I've put together a build list for a dual processor hackintosh + lion.

 

Part choices were made in consideration of deploying a video production machine that supports an array of software, for example, Avid, CS5.5, VDMX, Modul 8.

 

I'm looking for feedback on the overall build list.

Thanks so much for posting the great info and very helpful links. Great!

 

Have you built this system yet? I want to build a similar system with the M/B you listed and I want to know how compatible it is (if it even works with OS X, but seems like it should), and would like to hear about any problems or challenges you have had.

 

Thanks very much,
