Build Check

Hi all,

I wanted to get another set of eyes on a build for my friend. This will be my first hackintosh.

Purpose: Octane (GPU Renderer) and After Effects

Waiting for a deal on the GPU and the Wifi adapter: Fenvi FV-T919, if it ever shows up.

Side question is whether I should install Sierra or High Sierra has my first build?
