so did you saw the apple's mac mini of rs 39990?? it have just a 2.5GHz dual-core Intel Core i5( 2nd gen), a 500gb hard drive, intel hd graphics 400 ( IT SUCKS ), 4gb ram ? isnt that overpriced??? you still want mac os x /?? dont loose your hopes we will make a hackintosh for 31800rs which includes the original copy of mac os x.
so firstly why would someone make a hackintosh instead of geting a mac? well for obvious reason its overprice as stated above. secondly in a hackintosh you have ability to dual boot which means you can install windows 7 also on same hard drive if you are a gamer you will do it for sure so you get the best of both worlds. so lets build our hackintosh
NOTE: HACKINTOSH HAVE LOT OF HARDWARE LIMITATIONS, WE CANT JUST SIMPLY GRAB ANY HARDWARE AND EXPECT OS X TO RUN ON IT. ALTHOUGH THERE IS WIDE VARIETY OF PARTS AVAILABLE NOW BUT STILL YOU NEED TO DO LOT OF RESEARCH BEFORE CHOOSING THE RIGHT PART. INTEL IS MOST PREFERRED BRAND FOR PROCESSORS WHICH DOESN'T MEAN AMD WONT WORK, SURELY IT WORKS ON AMD BUT THERE ARE VERY LESS CHANCES TO GET YOUR PROBLEMS SOLVED. THE PARTS STATED BELLOW ARE 100% WORKING TESTED AND USED PERSONALLY SO YOU CAN BLINDLY TRUST ME AND BUY THESE PARTS.
1- processor- i3 3220
YES we are going for an i3 instead of i5 on mac mini simply because the i5 apple uses is a sandy bridge and have clock speed of 2.9ghz as compared to our i3 3220 it have a clock speed of 3.3ghz which makes it lil bit on the better side .
2- motherboard- gigabyte GA-B75M-D3P
its a micro atx motherboard with 4 usb 2.0 ports and 2 usb 3.0 ports and 100% compatible with mac os x and its cheapest one for the hackintosh so you save good amount of money here.
3- ram - corsair 4gb 240 pin ddr3
its a 13333mhz memory stick which will be enough for our build. we will have single stick of 4gb
4-GPU - Gainward NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 1gb
you can go for any other gtx 650 but this is the cheapest one and works perfect.if you are choosing any other gpu make sure you check out its compatibility with os x because there are very limited number of gpu that works with os x
5-HDD - WD 1TB cauiar green
its a 1TB hdd. it must be enough for your mac os x and windows partition if you are having any.
6 - psu - CORSAIR BUILDER SERIES CX500
this is the 80 plus certified power supply by corsair and its really quiet one. i strongly recment you guing the 80+ certified power supply, they are a lil bit expencive but they are the best.
7-dvd drive (optional)
you can skip this because for installing mac os x lion or mountain lion you need usb. also to install windows 7 you can make your usb bootable from someone else's computer and install. so this one is up to you if you want spend 900rs or just skip it
8 - case - cooler master elite 300
once again the case is your personal preferance i suggest you buy as cheap as posible and add money on ther parts like the ram or the motherboard.
9. MAC OS X MOUNTAIN LION IMAGE ( original from mac app store )
yes i strongly recommend you to download the official mac os x mountain lion from the app store its just 20$ that is 1136rs and its the cheapest operating system out there . you can download from torrent like the niresh or hazard version but those are most likely more pron to kernel panics so its better to buy one. to buy it you need a mac to install it on your usb to do that i suggest you simply ask your friend who have a mac to download it for you from the mac app store. if you dont have any friend who have mac then download vmware image and install in vmware on your windows pc. if you dont want to do the above things and if you live in mumbai then you can contac me on facebook and i will download and make a usb stick for you
