The big thing here is making sure that the LGA numbers matchup between your processor and motherboard. For the spinning drive, I chose the 2TB Seagate Barracuda.įor a motherboard, I chose the Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD5H Z board.

In retrospect, I wish I had gone with a tad more storage, but I can always update it at a later point. The SSD will be used for the operating system and apps, for a quick boot and quick performance, and the spinning drive for media storage. In terms of storage, I decided to go with both a solid state drive and regular spinning hard drive. You can always go with more, as the 4770K processor supports up to 32GB of memory.

Plus later on, I can overclock it if I choose to. Next up, I went with 16GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR3 RAM.

My best friend for this project was easily, which we have praised in the past for its clear breakdown of compatible parts and software guides.

So if I am able to successfully build this machine, pretty much anyone can. In fact, up until this project, I was pretty clueless as to what went into building a computer. Let me preface this with something, though: I have never built a computer, Windows or OS X. Most of all, I want to do it on a budget of about $1500, not including a 4k display. I don’t want to be able to hear the hard drive, fans, or anything else –essentially nonexistent in my office. And, I want it took look ultra-sleek on the outside and be absolutely silent. I am building one capable of performing on par with the highest-end Macs and capable of powering a 4k monitor. Now, it’s my turn to make an attempt at building a Hackintosh, but with an added twist. He ended up building a $750 ‘beast’ that competed with the best iMacs of the day, though. He originally intended on it being an affordable, baseline model without many bells and whistles.

Over the years, building ‘Hackintosh’ computers has become both a lot easier and more popular.
