so i've been in the hackintosh game since X79 days. I've been thinking about upgrading from my current rig, an aging X79 machine. My friend is offering to sell me a PC with an i7-6800k, GTX 1080, 32GB of RAM and an Asus x99 motherboard.

 

I'm wondering if i should purchase it ( the price would be very fair), or build a new i9/x299 build from scratch? A lot of my builds were based on SSDTs made by rampagedev, which is why i've been sticking to X99/X79. Another thought I had was upgrading the cpu to 8th generation intel on my friend's rig, but I'd like to keep the higher amount of PCI-E lanes the earlier chips have. Can anyone offer some input or experience? I will use the computer for Adobe Premiere/After Effects/Davinci Resolve/ Avid Media composer? Thanks.
