Hi all,

 

I have built a successful Hackintosh on a Lenovo W520 laptop previously. I now need a desktop power workstation to use with DaVinci Resolve, Adobe CC, AutoCad, Sketchup, FCPX under El Capitan.

 

I wanna have the least hassle possible building a stable working Hack with minimum tweaks and forum searching (I know this is wishful thinking).

 

Here's the build, any pitfalls, caveats or concerns to be wary of?

 

MB: GA-70MX-Gaming 5

CPU: 6700k

GPU: EVGA GTX970 4GB GDDR5 256bits

16GB Ram

Samsung M.2 SSD for OSX boot

Samsung 840EVO for Win 10 boot

2x Kingston V300 240GB SSD in Raid 0

 

Questions:

Any difficulties with basic functions? Sleep, sound, Lan, etc?

USB 3.0 is it workable? I really need as much USB speed as I can Get.

USB 3.1 type C? Does it even exist under OSX? Any way to get it working?

 

Suggestions for better or easier to work with parts?

 

Thanks!
