Going to make my p5q and q6600 system a dedicated hackintosh so looking to build a new system with windows 7 and video editing in mind.
This is what I have so far, not sure on mobo or ram (should I get fast speeds?)
Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD4 Intel P55 (Socket 1156) DDR3 Motherboard
(will only be running a single 260gtx card so if there is a board as stable, cheaper and doesnt have features like crossfire its probably better suited for me)
Intel Core i5 650 3.20GHz (Clarkdale) (Socket LGA1156) - Retail
(got a h50 for it already)
OCZ Gold 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C8 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (OCZ3G1600LV4GK)
8gb of this ram or faster stuff? never sure if faster ram is noticeable or not?
Corsair CX 600W ATX Power Supply (CMPSU-600CXUK)
only because its £54 but id prefer modular?
Samsung SpinPoint F3 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache - OEM (HD103SJ)
system drive
this will all go into my asaka omega case but I need a case for the hackintosh setup that can get bashed around and carried places easily? I dont mind going small but it needs to fit a sunbeam cooler, be ok heat wise for an overclocked q6600
ideally have handles so its either the coolermaster scout or the bitfenix survivor... anymore options?
