Review the first iteration of my build?

I'm planning to dual boot as the main reason I'm building a new PC is for gaming, I just really like OSX (and challenges).

  • Below is what I have so far. No peripherals as of yet as I may end up deferring those as birthday presents or something. Open to monitor suggestions as that's more complicated/necessary than the others, looking for something mid-range but adequate and nice/"apple" looking, have no idea what any of the specs mean.

  • There's two SSDs so I can dual boot Windows/OSX, will probably add at least one HDD at a later point.

  • The wifi/bluetooth adapter seems to be a particular problem. Namely getting compatible ones in Aus. Does the mobo I've picked even have room for the GPU and an adapter? Will this (same one on the list below) or this work?

  • Is my build suitable for hackintosh? Any glaring problems?

Thanks in advance!
