Doc_D Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Hi, I'm new and looking to build a new Hackintosh based on an AMD Ryzen. I would not use this machine for gaming what I will use it for is Photoshop and Lightroom. Data is primarily stored on a NAS I might add a secondary Disk later. Not sure if a M.2 drive is working with AMD Ryzen read some but nothing conclusive. GPU not sure if the ones on Board are working but it should be enough to drive the system as I would not require it for rendering or any specific GPU tasks. I'm not looking for a high end system nor an overly priced system. Biggest bang per Buck, and performance where needed (for me Memory) Any suggestions or changes are welcome to optimize or increase compatibility. CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 1600X 3.6GHz 6-Core Processor ($229.99 @ Amazon) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master - Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($29.51 @ Amazon) Motherboard: Asus - PRIME B350M-A Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard (less than $100)Memory: G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($400)Storage: Samsung - 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive (less than $100)Video Card: MSI - Radeon RX 560 - 1024 4GB AERO ITX Video Card (Approx. $130)Case: Thermaltake - Core V21 MicroATX Mini Tower Case ($59.65 @ Amazon) Power Supply: BitFenix - Whisper M 450W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($80) Total: $1130 (Less memory would be under 1000 - but needed to upgrade) https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tsczm8 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/331193-hardware-check-for-new-1000-us-build/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
