Building a Hackintosh from scratch


1 post in this topic

Recommended Posts

Hello, I'm relatively new to the Hackintosh scene so please bear with me :)

 

I've tried installing various versions of Mac OS X on a few systems with various results and I'm getting a little frustrated so thought that building a PC would be easier. My idea is to get PC Specialist to build me a desktop in which I'll then be able to have a fully working Mac Lion/Mountain Lion with WiFi, Graphics, Sound, etc... I have selected components and have no idea whether they'd be compatible to make this happen, so could anyone verify whether this set up would do the above?

 

InWIN MANA-136 BLACK GAMING CASE

Intel® Core™i3 Dual Core Processor i3-3220 (3.30GHz) 3MB Cache

ASUS® P8H61-MX USB3/SI: uATX, USB 3.0, SATA 3.0Gb/s

8GB SAMSUNG DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 4GB)

1GB AMD RADEON™ HD6450 - DVI,HDMI,VGA - DX® 11

500GB 3.5" SATA-III 6GB/s HDD 7200RPM 16MB CACHE

4x BLU-RAY ROM DRIVE, 16x DVD ROM (£26)

350W Dual Rail PSU + 120mm Case Fan

INTEL SOCKET LGA1155 STANDARD CPU COOLER

ONBOARD 8 CHANNEL (7.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO (AS STANDARD)

DUAL-BAND WIRELESS 802.11N 450Mbps PCI-E CARD (£35)

4 x USB 2.0 PORTS @ BACK PANEL (MIN 2 FRONT PORTS) AS STANDARD

£416 inc VAT and Delivery.

 

If any components need changing, it would be appreciated.

 

Thanks, Mark
