Hey guys. I'm trying to build a Hackintosh for audio production. The main purpose of the machine will be to run lots of VST plugins in Logic Pro X, as well as tracking. I'm mainly looking for a machine that will allow Logic to run without any stuttering. I've never built a Hackintosh before, so I'm new to all of this and was hoping some more seasoned people could take a look at the parts list I've put together from looking at other threads and tell me if there are any issues I should look into. I really appreciate the help, thanks!
